Mese Blocks (pronounciation: [ˈmɛˌsɛ]) are the rarest mineral and the third rarest blocks and start appearing very deep underground, under 1024 node lengths below sea level. Mese blocks are rarer than diamond ores but not even remotely rare as Nyan Cats. Mese Blocks usually appear in small clusters of three. A mese ore cluster is much more common. A single Mese block can be crafted to nine Mese Crystals. You need a steel pickaxe (or better) to mine it.

| Quote from the Developer Wiki:
The origin of the block is just plain random. In the early days of the game I [celeron55] needed to add something to be mined from the ground, and ended up with this humorous nonsense block, and haven't removed it from the game from since.
Mese actually means "msn messenger" in Finland and is used as a silly word (it sounds silly) in the ohjelmointiputka programming community. Additionally it is thought that the glasses of the emoticons 8) and 8D are "mese glasses".
