# Material Inheritance

## Description

Material inheritance allows you to base materials of other materials, copying all things abt them.Example```json{    "parent": "miapi:metal/iron",    "data": {        "mining_speed": 0,        "mining_level": "minecraft:incorrect_for_diamond_tool",        "items": [            {                "item": "minecraft:blue_ice",                "value": 0.1            }        ]    }}```This example uses extends iron and increases its mining level to diamond and adding blue ice as ingredient.
