Ancient Debris

Gold

You'll have to ensure you're well stocked with Gold, if you have hopes of acquiring Netherite Ore in Minecraft.

Luckily, you won't need a Diamond Pickaxe to mine it. Just a simple iron or above will do the trick!

Quantities needed

Brace yourself.

Smelt down the Ancient Debris and you'll get a single Netherite Scrap.

Combine four Netherite Scraps with four Gold Ingots for one Netherite Ingot.

Before you think it's impossible, let's take a look at just how awesome the pay off is!
