Basalt is generally black liberally covered with white to gray speckles. In [[Game updates/20130311|version 1.2]], it changed to become shinier and to have a unique texture when [[paint]]ed.


==Where Found==
==Where Found==
Unlike other blocks, basalt is not spawned as part of a [[world]]. Instead, it is created when [[water]] is placed on top of [[magma]] near the [[Center Of The World|center of the world]]. It must then be [[Mining|mined]].
Unlike other blocks, basalt is not spawned as part of a [[world]]. Instead, it is created when [[water]] is placed on top of [[magma]] near the [[Center Of The World|center of the world]] using a [[Tin Bucket|bucket]]. It must then be [[Mining|mined]]. This was made more difficult in [[Game updates/20140402|version 1.5]] with the addition of [[death]].


Note that water occurring naturally (i.e. as part of [[Getting Started|world generation]]) on top of magma does ''not'' form basalt unless disturbed.
