'''Stone bricks''' is a block found in various structures. It has three other variants, [[mossy stone bricks]], [[cracked stone bricks]], and [[chiseled stone bricks]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Stone bricks can be mined using any [[pickaxe]]. If mined without a pickaxe, they drop nothing.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Stone Bricks|Pickaxe|Wood}}

=== Infested blocks ===
Stone bricks can also be obtained by mining their respective [[infested block]]s with [[Silk Touch]].

=== Natural generation ===
Regular stone bricks generate as part of [[stronghold]]s, making up most of the walls, ceilings, and floors. They can also generate as part of [[ocean ruins]] and [[ruined portal]]s. [[Igloo]] basements are lined with stone bricks. Stone bricks can also spawn in [[trail ruins]] and in [[trial chambers]] surrounding [[silverfish]] [[trial spawners]]. Due to a glitch, a single stone brick can spawn under snowy [[village]]s under ''Snowy_Meeting_Point_2''.

=== Note Blocks ===
Stone bricks can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass drum" sounds.

[[Silverfish]] have the ability to enter and hide in stone bricks, creating an [[infested block]] of the corresponding type.
