Stone Block

Stone Blocks are found throughout the world, but are most prevalent deep underground, where they compose the majority of the Cavern layer.

They have hallowed and corrupt variants: Pearlstone and Ebonstone, respectively. At hardmode any hallowed or corrupt block will turn regular stone blocks that are up to three squares away into their hallowed or corrupt variants. Using Vile or Purification powders on it will turn it into regular stone. It can then be mined with any pickaxe or with explosives.

It's used to make a variety of Bricks, in addition to Statues, Furnaces, and even Wooden Arrows.
