Nether bricks are the building blocks of Nether fortresses in the Nether and are used to spawn mobs in that structure.
Nether bricks can be mined using any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, they drop nothing.
Nether bricks form the walls and supporting pillars of all Nether fortresses.
Nether bricks are non-flammable and immune to ghast fireballs, making them a suitable shelter material for the Nether.
If a Nether bricks block is inside the whole bounding box of a Nether fortress (not just inside the individual parts), Nether fortress mobs (such as blazes and wither skeletons) can spawn on it if other normal conditions are met.
