Special Blocks: Peat, Firebricks and Mysterious Stone!
- Peat: a dirt type block, containing charcoal. Its flamable similar to coal blocks and it tooks like mud, It aslo slows you down.
- Firebricks: a stylish alternative for regular bricks, with a smoother texture and a more yellowish color; perfect for fireplaces
- Mysterious stone: found scattered around your world, mysterious stone is a very OP block. It has many forms and textures and its very good at hiding among normal stone. Giving you up to 9 diferent types of stones and 32 items average when broken, you will start strip mining for it! Its extremly rare tho, so don’t be greedy.
Crafting!
- Every stone type can be used inside a crafting table and a stonecutter! Powdered stones can be obtained when smelting the raw stones in a furnace or blast furnace.
- Peat is found in swamps, jungles and other humid biomes but can be also crafted with 4 charcoal and dirt. It can be also turned back to 2 charcoal/peat block
- Firebricks can be crafted using normal bricks and blaze powder in a crafting table
- Mystery stone can be turned into 9 regular stone in a crafting grid but it can’t be crafted back!
- you can also get the blocks with commands starting with: /give @s minerals:
and then the name of the block you want!

Known bugs and how to report any!
- some stone types cant be yet generated naturally (those with specific biomes) as well as peat and mysterious stone.
- Peat and mysterious stone can’t yet be crafted back to charcoal and stone
- None of the blocks has an assigned tool so the breaking time is relatively slow and the block can drop itself even when broken by hand (not a modding capability yet, I can’t fix that at all for now)
Those bugs will be fixed in a future update of this add-on alongside new blocks and features, Stay updated by following me on twitter or return to this page!
