Gold Nuggets have a high chance of dropping from a slain Zombie Pigman, can be found in the Chests of Desert Temples and Jungle Temples, or can also be created by placing a Gold Ingot into a crafting grid, which breaks it down into 9 nuggets.
Uses
- Placing 9 gold nuggets into a 3x3 crafting grid will combine them together to make a gold ingot.
- Surrounding a Melon Slice or Carrot with eight gold ingots in a crafting table results in a Glistering Melon or Golden Carrot, respectively.
