#### **Obtaining**

<p class="callout info">Custom SWEM ore generation height is a configurable value in [common configs](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian/page/common-config#bkmrk-cantazarite-generati).</p>

<p class="callout warning">Cantazarite Ore cannot be mined by gold pickaxes to remain consistent with Minecraft - gold cannot mine above coal.</p>

**Natural Generation (Ore)**  
Cantazarite Ore spawns naturally throughout the world - by default it can be found around y-levels **0-30**

**Mining** In order to pick up the ore without breaking it, it must be mined using a pickaxe with the silk touch enchantment. Without silk touch, mining a block of Cantazarite Ore with a stone-tier or higher pickaxe will yield Cantazarite - each block will drop up to a maximum of nine 'shard' shaped Cantazarite, usually yielding a minimum of 6. These values are increased with the Fortune enchantment. When mining Cantazarite ore, a small amount of XP orbs are released, similar to mining coal, lapis lazuli, Redstone, diamond, emerald, nether quartz, and nether gold.
