The block of diamond is worth nine diamonds. It is crafted from nine on a crafting table and can be broken back down into nine, so its first use is storing diamonds in less space. To mine it without losing it you need an iron pickaxe or better.
Its other use is as a beacon base. A beacon needs a 3×3 layer of mineral blocks underneath, and it can take further layers of 5×5, 7×7 and 9×9 in a pyramid for stronger effects. It does not all have to be diamond: blocks of iron, gold, emerald and netherite can be mixed in. The effects do not depend on the material, so iron, which is far cheaper, is the usual choice.
In the world it generates in woodland mansions, as the core of the obsidian rooms and lava rooms, so exploring a whole mansion can hand you diamonds all at once.
Its texture is the same as the block of gold, only tinted blue. In builds and thumbnails, a wall of diamond blocks is the classic image of wealth in Minecraft, although up close it is a fairly plain block.
