About the Blackstone Slab
The Blackstone Slab is a dark, stone-like building block cut from blackstone. It works like other stone slabs: you can place it on the upper or lower half of a block, and two slabs placed together in the same space form a full block.
Key facts:
- Used for decoration, floors, roofs, and paths.
- Needs a pickaxe to mine, otherwise it drops nothing.
- Does not emit light or interact with redstone.
How to get the Blackstone Slab
You can craft six slabs from three blackstone blocks placed in a row on a crafting table. If you have access to a stonecutter, you can cut one blackstone block into two slabs instead. Blackstone slabs also generate as part of bastion remnants in the Nether, so you can collect them there with a pickaxe.
