Basalt

Basalt is a crafting material obtained by mining it in Deep Plains Caves. It is one of the underground resources found in that region and can be gathered directly from the cave terrain rather than crafted from other ingredients.

Because it is a crafting material, Basalt serves as a resource item for recipes that call for it. This makes it something worth collecting whenever you explore Deep Plains Caves, especially if you are already gathering other cave materials.

• Found naturally in Deep Plains Caves.
• Collected by mining deposits in the cave environment.
• Used as a crafting ingredient rather than a consumable or equipment item.

In practice, Basalt is most useful when you are stocking up on materials during cave exploration. Since its source is tied to a specific biome, it is worth mining whenever you encounter it so you do not need to make extra trips later for crafting needs.
