===Creating refractory bricks===


Refractory blocks are important for the steel making process as no other currently available block can withstand the extreme heat necessary to produce {{ll|steel|steel}}. Refractory blocks come in three different tiers, all of which can be used to make the cementation furnace. All refractory brick blocks have a chance to receive damage per use of the cementation furnace smelting process, however, using higher tier blocks will reduce the amount that receive damage per use. Tier 1 has a heat resistance of 90% (1 in 10 chance to break), tier 2 95% (1 in 20 chance to break), and tier 3 99% (1 in 100 chance to break). (Tier 3 may actually have a heat resistance of 99.9% and thus a 1 in 1000 chance to break. This information needs verification.)

To produce refractory blocks, stone and ore types specified below need to be crushed in a {{ll|pulverizer|pulverizer}}. These powders can then be used in the crafting grid together with {{ll|fire clay|fire clay}} to make unfired refractory bricks. Different compositions of powders are required for the different tiers.
