Dirt Block

The Dirt Block is a type of block primarily found in the Undergrounds and rarely in other biomes. It is often the first block a new player will encounter, with the The Core being enclosed in it.

They are useful in a variety of ways, from being a crafting material to a surface for cultivating many early-game crops.
