Obtaining
Natural generation
Granite can generate in the Overworld in the form of blobs. Granite attempts to generate 10 times per chunk in blobs of size 0-160, from elevations 0 to 79, in all biomes. In Java Edition 1.17[upcoming], granite only attempts to generate twice per chunk, however, the blobs are size 0-862. Granite can replace stone, diorite, andesite, tuff, and deepslate.
Granite generates in desert village armorer houses.
In Bedrock Edition, granite can generate as a part of coral reefs.
Polished granite generates in some ocean ruins.
Breaking
Granite can be mined using any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

Journeyman-level stone mason villagers have a 1⁄3 chance to sell 4 polished granite for one emerald as part of their trades.
Usage
Granite is currently used only for decoration. It has the same blast resistance as stone, meaning it can be used as a substitute for stone when building.

Trivia
- Geologically, granite is an intrusive igneous rock, made entirely of tiny crystals – mostly quartz, mica and feldspar. Intrusive rocks like granite cool from underground magma over a long time, letting the crystals grow large and visible to the naked eye. Granite is usually light in color, and it ranges from gray to distinctive pink. Granite as it appears in Minecraft is high in potassium feldspar, which makes it pink.
- Finding exposed granite at the surface of a Minecraft world implies the surface had to be much higher there for the granite to cool underground.
- Granite is like diorite, but it's made of more quartz (hence why granite is craftable using diorite and Nether quartz).
- Granite is named for its coarse, visible crystal grains. Granite comes from the Latin word granum ("a grain").
