There is ~1 diamond ore vein generated per chunk. An ore vein will have between 3 – 8 diamond ore in it.

Do diamonds spawn every chunk?

Ultimately, finding Diamonds is luck in Minecraft. There is a method to the madness though; only one Diamond vein will spawn per chunk (a chunk is 16×16 blocks) below Y=16, and that vein can be anywhere from 1-10 Diamonds long. So if you decide to clear out an entire chunk, you are guaranteed to find Diamonds inside.

How do you find diamonds with chunks?

Pressing F3 + G will show you chunk borders. Diamonds spawn in the 1-16 altitude, and there is at least 1 diamond ore in each chunk (unless it’s overwritten by cave). This is a slow but sure way to get diamonds.

Due to how Minecraft vein generation works, it is possible to find veins with up to 10 diamonds even though the max vein size is 8.

(1 in 100 quintillion).

Does Fortune work on ancient debris?
