Overview
Ancient Debris counts as a stone-family block in Minecraft 1.21.4. It has no crafting recipe — you collect it by mining it where it generates. Expect to wait: its hardness of 30 is well above average.
Mine it with a diamond pickaxe or better, or you get no drop at all. Broken correctly, it drops itself. A blast resistance of 1200 makes it a sensible choice where explosions are likely.
A full stack holds 64. Its only crafting use is Netherite Scrap.
