Almost all rock types in Minecraft are renewable, but these beautiful and useful blocks are not — only if you don’t mine them in the standard way.
On Skyblock and other limited worlds, this is a real problem, so here’s a logical way to make them renewable.
Calcite forms naturally through water and biological processes — it’s basically calcium carbonate. Using a dripstone and water, dripping onto a bone block or dead coral block could slowly create calcite, similar to how mud turns into clay in the game.
Tuff is compacted volcanic ash. It could form when lava drips from a dripstone onto a mud block, burning out the organic material and leaving tuff behind.
Deepslate is like compressed and heated stone. To make it renewable, players could use the mace: when a player falls from a great height and hits a mob, nearby stone blocks could have a small chance to turn into deepslate.
It’s an unusual mechanic, like how tridents can make charged creepers, which then drop mob heads.
These would be alternative ways to obtain the blocks — not easier, just fair and logical options for players in limited worlds.
