Where to find world seed & coordinates
Mineshaft Finder for Minecraft
Our Abandoned Mineshaft Finder tool provides exact coordinates for mineshafts in your Minecraft world. By analyzing your world seed, we can pinpoint where these extensive underground structures generate, saving you hours of cave exploration. Whether you're collecting rails for transportation systems, hunting for valuable ores exposed in the tunnels, or farming string from cave spiders, our tool will guide you to the nearest mineshafts.
Simply enter your world seed, current coordinates, and select your game version. Our tool will instantly calculate the nearest mineshaft locations relative to your position. This works for all Minecraft versions, supporting both Java and Bedrock editions.
How the Mineshaft Finder Works
Using Minecraft's world generation algorithms, our tool calculates the exact positions where abandoned mineshafts generate in your world. Unlike traditional exploration that requires extensive mining and caving, our finder shows you precise X and Z coordinates for the nearest mineshafts. This means no more digging random tunnels hoping to intersect one - you can head directly to where you know it will be.
The tool is perfectly safe to use and won't affect your achievements or game progress, as it doesn't modify your game files or interact with Minecraft directly. It's particularly useful for players looking to collect rails, find exposed ore veins, or create string farms from cave spider spawners.

What can I find in abandoned mineshafts?
Mineshafts contain valuable resources including rails, wood planks, fence posts, minecart chests with loot, and cave spider spawners. The tunnels often expose various ore veins including coal, iron, gold, and even diamond. Minecart chests can contain rare items like golden apples, name tags, and enchanted books.
How accurate are the coordinates provided?
The coordinates are 100% accurate as they use Minecraft's actual world generation algorithms. Every location shown by our tool will contain a mineshaft exactly where indicated, provided you've entered the correct world seed and game version.
Does this work for all Minecraft versions?
Yes! Abandoned mineshafts have been in the game since Beta 1.8, so our tool supports all modern versions for both Java and Bedrock editions. Simply select your correct game version from the dropdown menu for accurate results.
Is using the Mineshaft Finder considered cheating?
This tool doesn't modify your game or interact with Minecraft in any way. It simply shows you information that's mathematically determined by your world seed. Whether to use it is a personal choice - many players use it to make their exploration more efficient and enjoyable.
How can I safely explore mineshafts?
Bring plenty of torches to prevent mob spawning. Watch out for cave spider spawners which can poison you. Beware of drops and bring water buckets for safety. Consider bringing wood to craft more support beams if needed. Always mark your path with torches or signs to prevent getting lost in the complex tunnel system!
