Well since for some reason I always stumble upon crazy things like huge coal veins etc, I decided to start a topic showing some pictures I had from my excellent mining moments! lets kick it off with...
6 DIAMONDS 4 GOLD 6 REDSTONE AND 12 COAL
They were all veins so there was a lot behind them... plus there was tons of iron around the corner...
this was AFTER i had lost 6 diamonds (also in a vein) in some lava... damn lava...
