3. Mine the Deepslate Redstone Ore

The game control to mine the deepslate redstone ore depends on the version of Minecraft:

For Java Edition (PC/Mac), left click and hold on the deepslate redstone ore.

For Xbox One, press and hold the RT button on the Xbox controller.
For PS4, press and hold the R2 button on the PS controller.

You will need to continue to mine until the block breaks and a smaller block of deepslate redstone ore finally appears. The deepslate redstone ore will float on the ground.

TIP: Normally when you mine deepslate redstone ore, you get redstone dust as the drop. However, when you mine the deepslate redstone ore using a tool enchanted with Silk Touch, you will get the deepslate redstone ore itself as the drop.
