Types of pickaxe in Minecraft and what each one can mine

The pickaxe is the tool for stone, ores and almost everything made from them. There are seven materials, from wood all the way to netherite, with gold, stone, copper, iron and diamond in between. All but netherite are crafted from three units of the material on top and two sticks below.

Speed matters, but what it can collect matters more. Any pickaxe drops stone, but mine an ore with a pickaxe that is too weak and you get nothing: gold, for example, needs iron or better, and obsidian needs diamond or netherite.

The diamond pickaxe has 1,561 durability, and the netherite one comes from upgrading it at a smithing table. They are repaired at an anvil with their own material, a quarter of the durability per unit.

Enchantments change how you play a lot: Efficiency mines faster, Fortune gets more ore out of each block and Silk Touch collects the block as it is, the ore block itself for instance. Fortune and Silk Touch cannot share the same tool.

On a mining thumbnail, an enchanted diamond pickaxe is still the most recognizable icon.
