Materials to plan around

Plan around these terrain materials. Check each block's acquisition details before expecting a particular mining drop.

Mobs to investigate here

These definitions satisfy a complete biome filter. Follow a mob to check its drops, required light, blocks, height and runtime conditions. A matching biome alone does not guarantee a spawn.
