Iron Nugget

Iron nuggets are pieces of iron that can be obtained by smelting iron tools/weapons or iron/chainmail armor. One iron nugget is effectively worth one-ninth of an iron ingot.

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

Bartering
Piglins may barter 9–36 iron nuggets when given a gold ingot.

Usage
Iron nuggets are used to craft iron ingots, lanterns, soul lanterns, and chains.
