Trivia

 * Smelting Touch Pickaxes / Drills will automatically smelt the netherrack into . This will not count towards the collection, so the player must use a tool without smelting touch.
 * Netherrack used to be one of the hardest collections to maintain at #1. Although current #1 on leaderboard  has almost double the amount of #2.
 * Netherrack is one of the only collections that does not have a Minion, the others being Lily Pad, Gemstone, Magmafish, Sulphur and Ink Sac.
 * Since there is no minion for, the most efficient way to collect is to equip as well as wear  and other Mineral Armor pieces.
 * Prior to the Nether update's release, players were able to access the Blazing Fortress as early as Combat Level V. Notably, those on the Ironman gamemode could quickly reach netherrack collection V and unlock the recipe for the Magical Lava Bucket.
