Basalt is one of the types of stone that forms entire layers.

It is nearly identical in all ways to 3 of the other 4 igneous extrusive stones: andesite, felsite, and rhyolite (obsidian being the sole exception). The sole distinction between the four is that basalt is one of two stones that may contain sunstones.
