Basalt rocks containing Basalt can be found in the Salt Mine under Weiss. Basalt rocks can be mined with a Mining level of 72 and higher. They yield Basalt which may be combined with various amounts of Te, Efh, and Urt salts to make either Icy Basalt or Stony Basalt teleportation rocks after the completion of the Making Friends With My Arm quest. Basalt rocks have a 1/7 chance of being depleted each time they are mined.[1]
