Q&A for How to Find Emeralds in Minecraft

The Extreme Hills are basically those big mountains that have snow on them. So if you see a big mountain, it's probably an Extreme Hill.

I'm pretty sure that you need iron or diamond. Use the fortune enchantment to get 2, 3, or 4, depending on the enchantment.

Emeralds can be used to trade with villagers and you can also craft them into blocks of emerald and use them as normal blocks.

If you look at your map it has 3 coordinates: X, Y, and Z. Y is how high above the base layer you are.

Emeralds can be found in mountain biomes. Your best bet for finding emeralds is the Extreme Hills biome, and they tend to spawn close to lava, so try an underground cave system.

The extreme hills biome. It looks like the first picture in the article.

For trading with villagers, or turning them into a block of emerald to use as a normal block.

You need the MCPE add-on mod to do this. This only works on Minecraft PE and Bedrock edition, though.

The maximum amount of single emerald ore blocks you can find in a chunk are 8. If you mean the maximum amount of emeralds from one emerald ore block, that would be 4, but that's only using enchanted picks. Otherwise, you only get one per block. They also only spawn in veins of one.

Download the app "MCPE Addons", go to the search option and type "emeralds".

Emeralds tools cannot be crafted in vanilla survival without the Emerald Tools mod installed.

The surface. Find a village, then find a fletcher villager, trade with it, and give it 32 sticks and it will give you an emerald.

Emeralds can only be found in naturally-generated ores in mountain biomes. From update 1.16.5, naturally-generated emeralds can only be found in y-levels 4-32 in extreme hills biomes. However, with the upcoming 1.17 Caves and Cliffs update, ore generation has been changed, and emeralds may spawn from 0 to up to 256. The exact y-levels from which they spawn has not been publicly released yet, so be sure to keep checking in on the snapshots and updates to see. Emeralds can also be found in naturally-generated structures such as villages and desert temples.

Emeralds are found in extreme hills, and also in naturally generated structures, such as villages, or jungle temples. They can also be traded for via villagers.

The only enchantment that causes lightning is the Channeling enchantment, which can only be used on a trident. Upon using the trident in a thunderstorm, lightning will come down where the trident strikes, dealing damage to nearby entities.

Lava can spawn above-ground in the savanna. The chance is somewhat small, but you can occasionally find them. Like all other biomes, lava pools can also be found below ground in caves.

Emerald ore will not spawn in any other biome other than the extreme hills biome.

Emeralds will not generate in underwater caves, due to the fact that these are not located in the extreme hills biome. Underwater caves only generate if they are under an ocean, not the extreme hills.

The same steps apply, no matter what device you are on. The process is still the same, despite the controls and other functions of the game being different.

Finding 2 mob spawner conjoined with each other is an extremely rare occurrence. There are not many seeds where this occurs, so your best chance is using a seed where someone has found 2 spawners conjoined.

As long as the world is newer (the Beta 1.8), you can find extreme hills biomes in old worlds. However, unless the world is newer than version 1.3.1, you will be unable to find emeralds in the extreme hills biome.

If you don't live near an extreme hills biome, you will have to search for one. You will know when you reach one, as the hill will be made from a mixture of gravel, stone, and grass. If you need emeralds, you can always trade with villagers, or find some in naturally generated structures like desert temples and villages.

Emeralds can spawn underwater in extreme hills biomes only. They do not spawn underwater in any other biome.

Emeralds can only spawn in extreme hills biomes, and they are not more common due to the increased amount of caves and lava located there. Lava/caves do not affect the rate at which diamonds spawn, since they can only spawn in a single vein per chunk, no matter what biome you are in.

It depends on what your coordinates are. To see your coordinates, press F3 on your keyboard. Keep mining in a downward staircase until you have reached Y-level 11. Then strip mine, branch off, or look for a cave to find emeralds.

No, this is not a glitch. Emerald ore is much rarer than diamond ore, so it may take a while to find some. Keep mining at Y-level 11 in mountain biomes.

Yes, you can find an emerald in water but it's not salt water it's just the water that generated in the biome.

Only emerald blocks, which can be used for a beacon pyramid. Emeralds primary use is for trading with villagers.

Yeah, just trade. Fletchers are op in this way because just 32 sticks gets you an emerald.

Yes, you can sometimes. But it usually requires a lot of a certain resources, such as pumpkins, coal, paper and other items.
