Borax is an unremarkable white stone which can be found in large quantities within rock salt and in small quantities within gypsum.
Unlike real life, Borax can NOT be used as flux in game.
Real life
In real-life, borax is used as powder to either protect wood or is used as a flux while forging iron among many other uses (borax is a great aid for hot-forging two metals, for example it is needed to forge "damascus steel").
