1x Basalt

Basalt Dust is ground Basalt, a powder rich in minerals that turns ordinary farmland into ground for volcanic crops. The Mill grinds it, one stone into one portion of dust, and each batch takes three minutes. Its biggest job is Basalt Farm Soil. The Farmer blends the dust into Fertilised Farm Soil, and the seedlings of Cinder's Cradle will only grow in the result. A base that wants to plant Aurora Beans, Bloomheart Fruit or Prickle Pearl therefore needs a steady supply. The dust has a place in alchemy as well. The Alchemist uses it for healing spells such as Heal Cascade II and Eternal Chain Heal II, and for the rooting spell Eternal Entangle. The Coloring Station mixes it into several colour palettes, among them Royal Temper and Crimson Ground. Basalt is mined all over Cinder's Cradle, so a Mill at a base inside the region keeps the dust coming without long hauls. It is a late-game material, and demand for it climbs the moment farming starts in the volcanic north.
