Minecraft | How to find Diamonds FAST and EASY 

One helpful tip: Diamonds spawn 1 vein per chunk, so mine by chunk. Clearing layer 11 & 12 also layer 6 & 7 have a 70% chance of finding diamonds. If you don't find any diamonds, then the diamonds spawn very high or under bedrock, or is unfortunately replaced by dirt/cave.

For optimal efficiency, you want two pickaxes. One wirh efficiency 3, the other with fortune 3, and both with unbreaking 3. You should ALWAYS bring a bucket of water with you every time you mine. Because lava spawns on the layer directly below diamond, you should always dig around the diamond to find lava. Then waterfall and scoop the source block. Finally collect the diamond. Use your efficiency pick for stone. Use fortune for everything else. Fortune 3 will give you up to 4 diamond / gold / iron / coal for every block mined. Also up to 10 redstone / lapis for every block mined. Unbreaking obviously gives you much more durability so you don't have to repair your enchants nearly as often, saving you more resources. Finally, when mining with fortune, using 2 block spacing is more efficient than using 3 block spacing. 3 block spacing is used to save time. But for every diamond block you miss, you potentially miss 4 diamonds. If 5+ diamonds is worth one extra branch to you, do a 2-block space.

I'm sick of people saying that gold is totally useless. In terms of tools it's crap. But what about GOLDEN APPLES AND POWERED RAILS. Without gold you couldn't make awesome roller coasters!!!

I got Minecraft on my phone and was searching and searching for this video again. Why isn't it the first video that pops up? This the best Diamond mining tutorial on youtube.

my first time i ever saw minecraft was here and i got it 2 days after i saw this and im still playing wow the memories

I found 21 diamonds in 15 minutes thanks!!

I mined for 2 hours and went through 15 iron picaxes no diamonds :(

Title: How to find diamonds quickly Looks at duration*

This is the first mc tutorial i watched and im getting nostalgic watching it now...

You know...If you would of went into the caves you might of actually found diamond a bit faster and more of it...

I watched this years ago and OOOOHHHHHH THE NOSTALGIA AND I CANT SPELL

Man I saw this video when it was released and for nostalgic purposes I tracked the video down. Oh how time flies.

Thank you. That was so helpful. :)

Just a heads up u need to place your tourches more often when recording otherwise your videos are dark and look poor wuality

Lol this person ignores lapis lazuli and redstone

Throw back to the good old days of basic minecraft. Back when know one was super good and videos like this still existed. Now it's hard to find a good interesting non modded plain vanilla lets play. This game is great and it brings back so many memories.

nice video, might not work for most of the ppl but its nice anyways there is no video thats gonna lead you DIRECTLY to Diamonds or anything you are looking for.... neither its fake nor its not. but there you go some tips for finding it 1.If you found Iron Ores, go away from that place (that means there is no diams) 2.If you see Redstone Ores, then go inside it, take them and go. 3.Dig down and up and try not to make small tunnels... maybe the diams are near u and u miss them eventually. 4.Always look for diamonds at lava small caves, your gonna definitly find diams there. well.. thats what i all know! most of the time these tips are working and sometimes not, Depends...

who's watching in 2016? 1.10.2?

Did you use all of your levels? Literally no little bit extra?? Hm, interesting...

I could also recommend these tips 1. Don't just mine in branches, if you do, then you're going to be missing a lot of diamonds that could be there 2. Try to mind diagonally, this increases your chances by 10000x of finding diamonds. 3. Try mining to a cave and mine there, by my experience, I have found lots more rare items there. 4. Try strip-mining. Also by my experience i found miore rare items by doing this

"hi guys got a very quick tutorial for you" *(makes 14 minute long video)

how can something be "almost infinite"?

I tried this and after making like 20 of those long halls and using your method and 3 hours of mining I found nothing more than gold. The gold I found was only 10 ore and that was it besides that I got minimal iron ore and just a crap ton of cobblestone taking up space in my chests and inventory and maybe some coal and gravel for flint. -2/10 MLG DOES NOT APPROVE

Dude I used this strategy getting 31 diamonds in 30 minutes. I thought I would never find diamonds.. Thanks dude.

Yes!!!! I got 7billon minecraft diamonds on my Xbox live yay!!!!!!!!

caves are the best pleas to find diamonds

EMRALDS ARE RARER THAN DIAMONDS!

Why isn't he mining the redstone and the lapis

why u dont mine the diamonds with the fortune pickaxe ?

Hey you! If you are reading this have a bad day or bad night :(

I found diamonds using this tutorial, but in another way. I collected all the ores in one tunnel and decided to dig back. Then I saw some coal above me. I dug at it, and found myself in an abandoned mine-shaft. I knew there were treasures in there, including rails. As I walked through, collecting ores and rails, I saw a chest in a mine-cart. I opened it, and there were two diamonds, iron, and a saddle in it! I took the mine-cart as well as the stuff. I ventured forth, looking for rails, ores, and mine cart chests. I found lots of Iron and redstone and two more chest mine-carts, each with diamonds in them. Just as I was about to leave, I found diamonds below me. I took them, too, and dug my way out and went back home.

And I'm sittin In here coz i don't wanna get raped By Le creeperz ;O;

Simple: NO! Fast: NO! Hard: YES! Slowly: YES!

What happens if you play on Minecraft pe

You finally found your diamonds! Good luck mining your diamonds!

I have found tons at bedrock

I know this is old but you could also use xray texture packs.

FAST and EASY? Use X-Ray xD

I've been mining level 6 (right above the bedrock) for a while now. I mined a shaft the same way you describe, and also arranged the branch system the same way. (except I made my main tunnel 2x2 to help me not get turned around) I dropped into a perfect spot without any lava (or caves on the way down) and I'm working on a vast mine on this layer until running into lava in any branch. Almost done with the excavation after days of digging, and countless pickaxes. Long story short, I've really had excellent luck finding everything but emeralds, obviously. If the layers you describe are even richer, I can't wait to get into them as I work my way up!

On the PS3 how do you check how deep you are??

why didnt you get the lapis lazur sorry i dont know how to spell it

he is breaking the number one rule in minecraft is "DIGGING DOWN"

this was the first minecraft tutorial i watched after buying the game back in 2012

Still stuck in elo hell

FYI,Bruh,HOW DO WE USE X-RAY!!

I'm gunna be one of those weirdos who basically begs for likes "Who's watching in 2017? Like if you agree"

thanks so much! I mined for half an hour and got 40 diamonds. now I have a full diamond armour and tool set

better way:need iron pickaxe, put it in a chest switch to creative and put diamond ores everywhere, switch back to survival and mine it with the iron pickaxe 😀😊

what tool do i use to dig the diamond

you want some tap water

Amazing! I found 8 diamonds within MINUTES using your advice!! Thanks!!

How do you record your videos

God people stop swearing

Fast and Easy? more like Long and Hard

Another tip , while mining always mine every ore as they could reveal a different ore or even reveal dungeons and or abandoned mineshafts and they have good loot to be gotten ,

I like I like where is that dislike button.

THANK YOU SO SO MUCH I FOUND DIAMONDS RIGHT AT LAYER 11 RIGHT AFTER ONE SINGLE BLOCK YOUR THE BEST

OMG THIS VIDEO I WATCHED YEARS AGO THIS BRINGS BACK SO MANY MEMORIES!

props to you! watching this in 2017 and I remember in 2011 I had trouble just getting iron! Memories

This is a great tutorial on how to find diamonds. I found diamonds but then I lost them when I got killed by a skeleton and an endermen. I didn't go back to the mine after that.

advice from a pro actually the best way to do it is to bring a map and go to a cavern and make sure you stay at y 15 through y 0 (cavern has to be big) and take some iron armor full set and a enchanted iron sword (knockback II best) alot of torches always pick up torches in dead end caves as you exit once you find diamonds i recommend going to the surface if you are at y 50 you can dig straight up in emergencies but the path of torches you made can lead you to the surface use your map to make sure you are near home cave entrance is best to be near house/shelter in case you come out at night go into the cave at daynever bring pets in the cave and i suggest to use lots of gravel for lava in case diamonds are under or near the edge of lava only use on source block (dig gravel after still do not go down in case any lava is remaining never mine diamonds near lava) also picking up your torches helps you stay down there longer the longer your down there the higher chance of finding diamonds and use water on creepers bring a crafting table and a furnace as well as a couple of iron and stone pickaxes use the iron pickaxe on diamonds, redstone, lapiz and gold or find them in the nether or in abandoned mineshafts (they are in the minecarts with chests).

I watched this a couple years back so I decided to watch it again

Did my first tunnel and got 11 Diamonds, thanks alot bro :)

Strip mining. Pretty basic Minecrafting. But I never thought of using branches off of the main tunnel. So that's a pretty good idea! Thanks!

I remember watching this as a kid omg 😭🤣🤣 2018 where y’all at

This strat works so good! I found a mine after like 2 minutes with 6 diamonds and an emerald right where i first spotted the mine! Thanks so much.

Thank you so much! i found 12 diamonds in one mining trip!! I subbed!!

Came back here for some nostalgia man.

THANKS! Now i can be a professional minecraft player! I'm joining fanatic and playing minecraft competitive diamond mining! ILL MAKE MILLIONS!!!

RU-vid recommending me this 10 years later: ...

Thanks! :) Just found 16 diamonds because of you! :)

Too good i came up with almost 45 diamonds and i shared kt to my freindz like a gud boy🙋🙋🙋

Who thinks mods are stupid sometimes!?!?!?!??! BTW, this really helped too, thx ;)

beacaus of this video whan i was a biginer i found diamonds!!!!! and i got a anvil beacause of this video and i got redstone ,lapis,iron and diamonds!!! i found 6 diamonds tnx for the vid i really really really like it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i didnt even need X-Ray

My brother and i do this. With this we found 56 diamonds. It took i think 3 hours of mining but it was useful!!

I watched this before i think when im 7. Now minecraft is rising and now playing minecraft again after 5 years i guess

When digging downward, start on or next to a mountain. When I tried this, I dug straight into a massive maze of caves, which actually makes it easier than digging in a straight line and banking on luck. I got about 20 gold, 5 emeralds, and 5 diamonds easily, and an endless supply of obsidian. I'm not even done exploring the caves, they go on forever. Best way is to find the caves. Digging out into a straight line is boring and luck-based. Also SAVE SAVE SAVE. Lava is annoying as Hell and it is easy to lose an hour of labor just from touching lava.....

thanks for the tip, i just started playing this, my daughter has been begging me to join her on this game and finally got it XD

This did good. Now i'll kiss cave exploration goodbye.

I love dis VID I subbed an liked an turned on notifications on :) LOVE IT

I didn't think it would work but it did. Nice vid dude.

Great video! I very much value your advice on the best way to obtain diamonds! In fact, I think I might start searching for diamonds in the same way that you suggested 😀

Learn tip: If you want a pet in minecraft, first go kill a Skeleton and you get 2 bones, get one of the bones and look for a wolf/dog and point the wolf,dog then a button appears, click it then there will be hearts and you have your pet, if you try to kill zombie, sheep,cow ETC... your pet helps you

I am at 7:15 in the vid and I found 8 diamonds in game, Thanks man

So you know, diamond only spawns 1 spawn of diamond blocks per chunk, so once you find it in the chunk you are in, you need to just move on to the next chunk before you branch mine

Easier way , 1- find lava 2-just keep mining coblestone near it , 3- here's ur diamonds

man, I remember this from nearly 5 years ago!

this vid changed my minecraft life.

BTW this actually helped I got 4 stacks of redstone 2 stacks of iron a stack of lapis lazuli and 10 diamonds thanks

thanks dude! thank you so much always make videos like this thanks for helping me get diamonds

Hey just wanted to say You're the best You're so intellegent Good job on originality Wanted to say a nice comment just cause i can If you read this just wanted to say your a nice person 😀

In a world I am working on, I have the following: 9 stacks of Iron, 3 stacks of gold, 4 stacks of redstone blocks, 1 1/2 stacks of Lapis, and 45 enchantment levels. BUT ONLY 6 DIAMONDS!!!

continue wih these mining tutorials they are interesting

good to see im mining correctly...i disagree with leaving 3 rows, leaving 2 lets you rest assured you didnt miss any in that area

BEST TUTORIAL EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks dude worked 100% :)

In a different time and in a different place. If only I knew then what I know now. Perhaps my life would be better, and more fulfilled. Maybe, it would even have a proper direction. Welp, best to plant my tree today I guess.

Pretty sure it would be better to mine 2 down on one side then 4 time on each other times so you will have more time to be aware of lava, etc. while you're unconsciously mining.

HINT: if you put the torches all on the right side.. you know which way is out by following the torches on the left once you turn around..right means in, left means out.

Thanks!I found 16 diamonds doing this technique!
