A pickaxe is a tiered tool that is required to mine most types of stone, ore, and blocks crafted from stone or ore. The mining level of a given pickaxe determines which blocks it can collect.
There are seven pickaxe variants:
Wooden, golden, stone, copper, iron, and diamond pickaxes are crafted using two sticks and three of the tier’s material.

A pickaxe is used to break stone-based and metal-based materials faster. Different qualities of pickaxe are required to successfully harvest certain ores and blocks. For example, while stone can be mined with any pickaxe, gold ore must be mined with an iron pickaxe, diamond pickaxe, or netherite pickaxe, or else the player harvests no item.
Different pickaxes also mine many materials at different speeds due to differing mining efficiencies. The following table shows the number of seconds required to break each type of block:

ceil(durability ÷ 2) × damage per hit. The durability is halved then ceiled because pickaxes take double durability when used as a weapon, and the last 1 durability can also deal damage. The formula also ignores enchantments, and assumes each attack is performed at maximum charge.
ceil(durability ÷ 2) × damage per hit. The durability is halved then ceiled because pickaxes take double durability when used as a weapon, and the last 1 durability can also deal damage. The formula also ignores enchantments and critical hits, and assumes each attack is performed at maximum charge.
Pickaxes can be repaired in an anvil by adding units of the tier's repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% of the pickaxe's maximum durability, rounded down.
