Minecraft:Copper Torch: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 20:17, 9 April 2026

Template:Hatnote Template:Infobox block A copper torch is a non-solid block that emits light. Copper torches can also be used to craft copper lanterns.

Obtaining

Breaking

Copper torches can be broken instantly using anything, and drop themselves as an item. Script error: No such module "breaking row". A copper torch is removed and drops itself as an item if:

Its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed
Minecraft:Water or Minecraft:lava flows into its space
A Minecraft:piston pushes it or moves a block into its space

Crafting

Template:Crafting

Usage

Copper torches can be placed on the top or the sides of most solid blocks, although some blocks require {{#vardefine: control | shift on keyboard or right button on the right side of gamepad }}sneaking. Being non-solid, copper torches have no collision box. More information about placement can be found at Opacity/Placement.

Gravity-affected blocks like Minecraft:sand and Minecraft:gravel do not start falling if the space immediately beneath is occupied by a copper torch. Falling blocks break if they fall onto a solid block with a copper torch above it. If there is an Minecraft:air block under the copper torch, the falling blocks fall through the copper torch onto the surface below.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Copper torches do not oxidize. The copper is being used as part of the torch's fuel and not the base.

Light

Copper torches give off a light level of 14. Copper torches also melt snow layers within 2 blocks and Minecraft:ice within 3 blocks (taxicab distance).

When the Render Dragon Features for Creators experiment is enabled in Minecraft:Minecraft Preview, the top part of copper torches emits colored point lighting with Template:Color. This causes the bottom part of the copper torch to render a small square shadow.

Trivia

In real life, green fire can be produced by introducing copper(II) salts such as

Template:Redr and

REDIRECT Template:Wikipedia

Template:Redr into a flame, in a process called

REDIRECT Template:Wikipedia

Template:Redr.

- Copper in its metal form does not reliably work for this purpose, as the flame color is produced by metal ions.
