u can use it as a compound material...
example for hard aluminium plate..
u can use "Aluminium Ore + Basalt"
the result will be Alu Sand,Alu Block,Alu Plate and Hard Alu Plate
^-^
u can also compound juice using it...Fruit+Basalt...
but u dont need so high rank ore for juice...juz use copper ore,coal ore or iron ore...or even saltpeter^-^
