Intact, fresh (unweathered) basalt has a very low permeability of around 10-12 to 10-15 cm2.
As such it is generally classified as being impervious.
Basalt is generally considered to be relatively impermeable compared to other rock types, especially when it is fresh and unaltered. However, it can have varying degrees of permeability depending on its structure, mineral content, and the presence of fractures or vesicles. In some cases, basalt can allow the movement of fluids through these features, although it is still less permeable than sedimentary rocks like sandstone. Overall, while not completely impermeable, basalt tends to limit fluid flow more effectively than many other geological formations.
Basalt
Usable groundwater is to be found in aquifers. Aquifers are porous, permeable rocks sandwiched between two layers if impermeable rocks. Sandstones and porous limestones can form good aquifers.
specific heat of basalt is 0,2
Basalt formations can be massive, encompassing many square miles. The mineral crystals which make up basalt require magnification to see.
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.
Permeable rocks: sandstone, limestone, and conglomerate. These rocks have interconnected pores that allow water and other fluids to flow through them. Impermeable rocks: granite, basalt, and shale. These rocks have very few or no pores, making them resistant to the movement of water and fluids.

That rock was not Basalt, it was different. This is not a diamond, just a normal Basalt.
Plasma membranes are selectively permeable.
