yes a porous vesicular rock or stone
It is not a precious or semi-precious stone. It has some value as a building material, and is used as crushed stone for paving highways and making concrete. I pay about $25 per ton for crushed basalt for my driveway, but larger amounts sell for much less.
porous rocks and lime stone
Lime stone is a porous rock as it absorbs water.
Anything surface that won't absorb liquid, i.e. tile, glass, stone, laminated, varnished wood. Bare, untreated wood would be considered a porous surface. hope this helps
Yes it is.
Some basalts can be quite porous, others may be non-porous.
There are 2 types of permeability- Porosity and Perviousness Granite and basalt are both pervious Granite has low porosity, but basalt can be both porous or non-porous. It depends on its rate of cooling.
porous stone can, but non-porous stone like clay layers can't
No, diamond isn't a porous stone
Basalt feels like a smooth, dense and cool stone.

Non-porous rocks are solid materials that do not allow water or other fluids to pass through them due to the absence of interconnected pore spaces. This lack of porosity prevents the storage or movement of fluids within the rock, making them impermeable. Examples of non-porous rocks include granite, basalt, and marble.

It is made of Black Polished Basalt
