Black Bronze is a [[Anvil#Tiers|Tier 2]] alloy obtained by mixing [[Gold]], [[Copper]] and [[Silver]] in a [[Pottery#Ceramic Vessel|Ceramic Vessel]] or [[Crucible]].

== Usage ==

=== Casting ===

{{main|Metalworking Industry#Casting|Casting}}

==== Vessel ====

Place an empty or partially filled [[Clay Tool Molds|ceramic tool or weapon mold]] into the slot to fill it with black bronze from the vessel. It takes 100 units of black bronze to completely fill an empty ceramic mold. The text in the vessel's GUI will update to show the amount of black bronze remaining in the vessel.

{{Grid/Vessel
|Metal=Black Bronze
|Units=100
|A1= Ceramic Mold Axe; Ceramic Mold Axe (Black Bronze)
}}

==== Unshaped Ingot ====

To fill a tool or weapon mold from a ceramic ingot mold, right click with the ''liquid temperature, completely full,'' unshaped black bronze ingot while it is selected on the hotbar to open the casting interface:

{{Grid/Ceramic Mold
|A1= Unshaped Black Bronze ; |A2= Ceramic Mold Axe; Ceramic Mold
|Output= ; Ceramic Mold Axe (Black Bronze)
}}

Place a ''single'' empty tool or weapon mold into the first slot on the right to begin the transfer. The arrow will progress, and the filled mold will appear to the right. The empty ceramic mold may appear in the center slot, although it has a chance of breaking and being lost.

|{{Grid/Inventory Table
|A1= Axe Head (Black Bronze)
|A2= Stick
|Output= Black Bronze Axe
}}
|}

=== Smithing ===

Liquid black bronze can be poured into a [[Pottery#Ceramic Mold|Ceramic Mold]] to make unshaped black bronze. Once the unshaped black bronze is no longer liquid temperature, it can be placed in the crafting grid to create a black bronze ingot. The empty mold will be returned to the inventory; although there is a chance of it breaking and being lost.

Creating an ingot will only work if the metal is in a solid state. The temperature will be carried over from the unshaped ingot temperature.
