Fossils are rare underground structures composed of Bone Blocks and Coal or Diamond Ore that generate in Deserts, Swamps, and Soul Sand Valleys.
Overworld fossils generate deep underground between Y=-63 and Y=0 in Deserts and Swamps, with deepslate variants embedding raw Diamond Ore directly in the bone structure.
Nether fossils generate exposed on the surface and embedded in Soul Sand and Soul Soil across Soul Sand Valley biomes, serving as easy bone block sources.
Fossils feature 8 unique spine and skull configurations. Each fossil contains between 40 and 100+ Bone Blocks, yielding large quantities of Bonemeal.
Do Fossils contain Diamond Ore in Minecraft 1.18+?
Yes! In Minecraft 1.18+, Overworld fossils generating below Y=0 replace their coal ore blocks with Deepslate Diamond Ore blocks.
Which biomes generate Fossils in the Overworld?
Fossils generate underground exclusively in Desert, Swamp, and Mangrove Swamp biomes in the Overworld.
Where do Nether Fossils spawn?
Nether Fossils generate naturally throughout Soul Sand Valley biomes at any height between the nether floor and ceiling.
How many Bone Blocks are in a single Fossil?
A single fossil structure contains between 40 and 120 Bone Blocks depending on the skull or spine variant.
