Where You Can Find Stone Bricks In Minecraft
Minecraft has a plethora of ways for you to find or make stone bricks. In fact, the best way to find stone bricks is by discovering villages! There is a 37.7% chance of village mason chests to contain stone bricks.
However, the amount of stone bricks is quite limited as they will always be in a stack of one. Meaning if you’re in need of a lot of them your best bet is to craft them as we did above.
Where To Trade For Stone Bricks?
