Lapis lazuli is a mineral required to enchant items in an enchanting table. It is also a major source of blue dye.
When mined with a stone pickaxe or better, lapis lazuli ore or deepslate lapis lazuli ore drops 4โ9 lapis lazuli. With the Fortune III enchantment, a single block has a chance of dropping up to 36 items. The ore is most common at y level -2.
