Iron Nugget

Iron nuggets are small pieces of iron that are used to craft various items such as iron ingots. They can be obtained by smelting iron tools or weapons or iron and chainmail armor. One iron nugget is effectively worth one-ninth of an iron ingot.

Durability and enchantments do not affect the ability to smelt iron tools, weapons, or armor into iron nuggets.

Piglins may barter 10–36 iron nuggets with a chance of ~2.13% (10⁄469) when given a gold ingot.
