    Wow, this is brilliant.

    I’d genuinely have thought that lapis would be a rarer spawn than iron, gold or redstone.

    Thank you for this, it is useful!

    I may need to run some of my own tests on this, I feel like I've been getting different results lately...

    I haven't been keeping track of stone, but most recent mining yielded:
    1184 Coal Ore
    76 Lapis Ore
    50 Gold Ore

    46 Iron Ore
    28 Redstone Ore

    This has been the general trend I've seen lately, where I get absurd amounts of coal, a good bit of lapis, a bit more gold than iron (usually within a little bit of each other), and the smallest amount being redstone, usually by the same margin as lapis is above.

    Hard to say without knowing the total block yield.

    I still have my test setup, so it might be fun to run another 50k blocks or so through it :)

    Surprised Lz hasn’t beaten you to this one Super_Dave1236.

    Any estimate on the amount of stone? Even if an exact amount isn’t able to be given.

    Stone gen. Cobblestone gens are a lot slower than stone gens, so people tend to use stone gens for fastest results.

    I honestly have no idea. I haven't fully emptied my stone collection chests ever since it was built, so I never know how much is new stone and how much has been there. Sometime soon I'll try emptying it out and then keeping track of things.

    RedstoneTrails mines approximately 160,000 blocks in total to generate his reported ore drop.

    Wow! Thanks for sharing this information. I was getting pretty upset when no lapis was spawning after inventories upon inventories of stone mining! This helps me a lot!
