When did basalt form?

Basalt is a commonly extrusive volcanic rock. It is usually grey to black and fine-grained due to rapid cooling of lava at the surface of a planet. Unweathered basalt is black or grey. Basalt is defined as an igneous rock that contains less than 20% quartz and less than 10% feldspathoid and where at least 65% of the feldspar is in the form of plagioclase. On Earth, most basalt magmas have formed by decompression melting of the mantle. Basalt has also formed on Earth's Moon, Mars, Venus, and even on the asteroid Vesta. Basalt is being forming all the time from volcanic eruptions and activity.
