Overview
Lodestone is a functional block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. You craft Lodestone rather than find it ready-made. A hardness of 3.5 makes it slow going without the right tool.
Anything below a wooden pickaxe breaks it without leaving a drop. It drops as the same block you mined. It stacks to 64.
You make it with Chiseled Stone Bricks and Netherite Ingot. No recipe takes it as an ingredient.
