Basalt

Basalt is a type of igneous rock found in the Nether.

Polished basalt is the polished version of basalt.

Natural generation
Basalt generates naturally as basalt pillars, which are found in the biome.

Post-generation
Basalt can also be made by lava flowing on top of soul soil next to blue ice. The lava is replaced with basalt.

From block loot
Basalt drops as an item if mined by any pickaxe. If mined by any other tool, it drops nothing.

Info
Basalt is currently used only for decoration. Like blocks such as logs and quartz pillars, basalt can face either horizontally or vertically depending on how they are placed; they will face in the direction of the block face they are placed in.

Breaking
Basalt drops as an item if mined by any pickaxe. If mined by any other tool, it drops nothing.
