Diorite is a block of igneous rock, found in large pockets underground.
Diorite can be mined using any pickaxe. If broken without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.
Diorite can generate in the Overworld in the form of ore blobs.
In Bedrock Edition, diorite attempts to generate in two batches in all biomes in the Overworld. The first batch generates 2 times per chunk in blobs of size 0-864, from elevations 0 to 60. The second batch has 1β6 chance to generate blobs of size 0-864, from elevation 64 to 128. In Bedrock Edition, diorite can replace stone, andesite, granite, polished andesite, polished diorite, and polished granite. In Java Edition, diorite can replace stone, andesite, granite, tuff, and deepslate.
Diorite generates in weaponsmith houses, tannery houses, and mason houses in snowy villages.
In Bedrock Edition, diorite generates in coral reefs, replacing some blocks of coral crust.
Diorite has the same blast resistance as stone, meaning it can be used as a substitute for stone when building.
