Sculk Blocks are a unique type of item found exclusively in the deep dark biome or created by the sculk catalyst. The block has glowing spots that do not illuminate the surroundings. You can find the deep dark underground biome anywhere in the Y=-1 and Y=-64 range. 

Sculk blocks can be mined with any tool, but hoes can get the job done the most quickly. It will always drop 1 experience if mined without Silk Touch, a tool enchantment that causes certain blocks to drop themselves instead of their usual items when mined.
