    They should create a region of the nether in Minecraft where it’s like an old graveyard for pigmen and the ground there should be made out of pigneous rock.

    Did you know, that the melting temperature of dry granite at ambient pressure is 1250 to 1260 Celsius; however, that temperature is significantly reduced in the presence of water, putting it down to 650 degrees Celsius at just a few kilobars of pressure!
