[7.00e/d] diamond shovel = 1 diamond = 7 emeralds = 98 wool = 112 coal = 126 wheat = 133 paper.

3. Emeralds are Rarer and Often More Expensive than Diamonds. When many people think of rare or expensive gemstones their first thought is of diamonds. But it is emerald that are among the rarest of all gemstones and so often have a price tag to match.

Rarity is the key factor to pricing any gem. Basic quality differences aside, emeralds are much rarer than diamonds. Diamonds alone account for half of the entire precious gem industry. This includes emeralds, sapphire, rubies, topaz, tourmalines, moonstones, sunstones, and any other gemstone imaginable.
Natural emeralds can cost as little as $200 or as much $18,000 per carat depending on quality. Synthetic emeralds are less valuable than natural emeralds, with even the highest quality costing around $350 per carat.
The naturally generated structures that spawn emeralds are buried treasure, desert temples, end cities, igloos, villages, jungle temples, shipwrecks, and underwater ruins. Each of these has different chances of spawning emeralds within their chests. In buried treasure, there's a 59.9% chance of 4-8 emeralds spawning.
A beacon will only activate when placed on a pyramid. To build this pyramid, you'll need iron, gold, emerald, diamond, or netherite blocks. You can use just one or all of these four resources together when building your pyramid — however, you'll need a lot of them.
4 Answers. No, all blocks used to build the pyramid have the same effect. The way you activate different powers is through the Beacon Block's GUI. Placing a single iron ingot, gold ingot, diamond, or emerald will allow you to set which power is being produced by the pyramid.
Redstone blocks shouldn't be able to be used in the beacon, because redstone is extremely common and the beacon would be too easy to get. The beacon itself needs a buff to make it worth the crazy cost.
