Netherrack is the rock that the Nether is made of.

Obtaining

Breaking

Netherrack drops itself when mined with any pickaxe, and nothing otherwise. A pickaxe breaks it fastest.

Natural generation

Netherrack fills the Nether's terrain wherever it is solid. Soul sand and gravel replace it at the surface in places between y=60 and y=65.

Usage

Fire on netherrack never burns out, even in rain.
