Crimson Stone

Crimson Stone is similar to normal stone, except it only generates in the Crimson dimension. It uses the stone texture, but tinted purple-ish-red. It takes a little longer to mine it than normal stone. In 1.7, it drops itself as there isn't a cobblestone variant of it.

Obtaining
You can get it naturally in 1.7 as it drops itself. But after 1.7.1, you can silk touch it, or smelt the cobblestone.

Usage
There is no real use for this other than decorative and to generate as the normal type of stone in the crimson dimension.
