what does an iron pickaxe smelt into?
Iron Ore is a common ore found almost everywhere in a Minecraft World. Iron ore generates around and below sea-level in the Overworld. It is a crucial material to gather during the early stages of the game, since it can be made into an iron pickaxe capable of mining all types of ores (including diamond). Every Iron Ore block contains enough iron to make one Iron Ingot, when it is smelted.
