Build and technical notes

• Nether Quartz Ore is an ore block whose mining tool and drop behaviour matter more than its decorative role. Check the mining section before collecting it so the intended drop is not lost.
• The recorded collision shape is “block”. Collision is a gameplay property, so do not infer it only from the block's visible model.
• Nether Quartz Ore is recorded as opaque. Its emitted light is 0 and its light-filter value is 15.
• Nether Quartz Ore has 1 recorded Java block-state combination, so its base state is comparatively simple.
• Its recorded blast resistance is 3; this is separate from hardness and should be used for explosion-risk comparisons.

Java and Bedrock differences

• Nether Quartz Ore is present in the tracked Bedrock registry only. Do not reuse its identifier in the other edition without checking that edition's current release.
