The lava flows of the Deccan Traps in India, the Chilcotin Group in British Columbia, Canada, the Paraná Traps in Brazil, the Siberian Traps in Russia, the Columbia River Plateau of Washington and Oregon, as well as parts of the California inner coastal ranges in the United States, as well as the Triassic lavas of eastern North America are basalts. Other famous accumulations of basalts include Iceland, the Karoo flood basalt province in South Africa and the islands of the Hawaii volcanic chain.
It can be found near a volcano that's been active. It can be under ground, on the surface, or found in a river (really few times) near a active volcano.

A : onion ri ngs get it
you can find the Basalt rock and where near a volcano or where ever somebody had put it.
The most abundant silicic volcanic rock is Basalt. This is a main hazardous and acidic effect of an explosive volcano. Please be careful when travelling to places with active volcano.
As it turns out, most of the ocean floor is basalt, and most of the continents are granite.
