'''Clay''' is a block that can be found abundantly in lush caves, in patches in shallow surface water or converted from [[Minecraft:mud]] using pointed dripstone. It can be smelted into [[Minecraft:terracotta]] or broken into clay balls which are smeltable into [[Minecraft:brick]]s.

Clay blocks can be mined with any item, but [[Minecraft:shovel]]s are quickest. Destroying a clay block yields 4 clay balls. If broken with a tool enchanted with [[Minecraft:Silk Touch]], it drops itself instead. Destroying a clay block with a tool enchanted with Fortune does not increase the amount of clay dropped.

For the {{{Description}}} of the same name, see [[{{{Destination}}}]].

Template:Infobox block Template:Relevant tutorial Clay is a block that can be found abundantly in Minecraft:lush caves, in patches in shallow surface water or converted from Minecraft:mud using Minecraft:pointed dripstone. It can be Minecraft:smelted into Minecraft:terracotta or broken into Minecraft:clay balls which are smeltable into Minecraft:bricks.

Obtaining

Breaking

Clay blocks can be mined with any item, but Minecraft:shovels are quickest. Destroying a clay block yields 4 Minecraft:clay balls. If broken with a tool enchanted with Minecraft:Silk Touch, it drops itself instead. Destroying a clay block with a tool enchanted with Minecraft:Fortune does not increase the amount of clay dropped. Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Clay generates in large quantities on the floors of ponds in Minecraft:lush caves.

Clay can also generate in lush caves in the form of blobs. Clay attempts to generate 46 times per Minecraft:chunk in blobs of size 0-160, at any height. It can replace Minecraft:stone, Minecraft:granite, Minecraft:andesite, Minecraft:diorite, polished graniteTemplate:Only, polished andesiteTemplate:Only, polished dioriteTemplate:Only, Minecraft:tuffTemplate:Only, and Minecraft:deepslateTemplate:Only.

Clay is found underwater in Minecraft:swamps, Minecraft:beaches, Minecraft:oceans, and at the bottoms of Minecraft:rivers and Minecraft:lakes in shallow, crystal-shaped Minecraft:disks, disregarding adjacency to other types of blocks.

Clay generates in mason houses in Minecraft:plains, Minecraft:savanna, and Minecraft:desert Minecraft:villages, and under fisher cottages in Minecraft:taiga villages.

Template:Block distribution

Mob loot

An Minecraft:enderman holding a clay block drops the block upon death.

Generated loot

Template:LootChestItem

Crafting

Template:Crafting

Villager gifts

Template:See also Template:IN, when the player has the Minecraft:Hero of the Village status effect, a mason Minecraft:villager might throw that player a clay block as a gift.

Post-generation

If Minecraft:mud is placed above a block with a Minecraft:pointed dripstone hanging underneath, the mud eventually turns into clay, although the dripstone does not deposit any water into a Minecraft:cauldron. This conversion does not happen in Minecraft:the Nether.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Usage

Minecraft:Big dripleaves, Minecraft:small dripleaves, mangrove propagules, Minecraft:azaleas and Minecraft:flowering azaleas are the only plants that can be placed on clay. Unlike most other blocks, clay supports small dripleaves even outside of Minecraft:water.

When an azalea or flowering azalea placed on a block of clay is grown into an Minecraft:azalea tree, the clay block turns into Minecraft:rooted dirt.

Smelting ingredient

Template:Smelting

Note block

Clay can be placed under Minecraft:note blocks to produce flute sounds.

Sulfur cube

Template:In development Minecraft:Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb clay, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.
