Mithril can be mined from Mithril Veins; the inside is harder to break and gives more Mithril, while the outside breaks quicker and gives 1 Mithril. Cyan Hardened Clay and Gray Wool are the easiest to mine, followed by Dark Prismarine, Prismarine Bricks, Prismarine and finally Light Blue Wool, which is the hardest. All ores in the vein give +45Mining XP. However, there are some veins which are not purely Mithril and give only +20Mining XP.

Mithril is a material from J.R.R Tolkien's Middle Earth universe. Dwarves forged it into armor that cannot be pierced by even the strongest blades. This is referenced not only shown by the name of the ore but also by the Mithril Coat, a direct reference to Tolkien's Middle-earth Mithril.
Inside the ⏣ Dwarven Mines and ⏣ Glacite Tunnels, only the Mithril in the texture of Gray Wool and Cyan Hardened Clay can be insta-mined. Light Blue Wool Mithril cannot be insta-mined, even inside the ⏣ Crystal Hollows.
