Granite rocks are a type of rock found in the Desert Quarry south of the Bandit Camp in the Kharidian Desert. In the quarry, as in the desert, desert heat will continually reduce the player's Hitpoints unless the player has waterskins in inventory, or is wearing the Desert amulet 4. Prior to January 2007, no water was required in the quarry. Granite is mainly used for fast Mining training, using the drop trick. There are three types of granite, 500g, 2 kg, and 5 kg, all rising in price respectively. Using a chisel, granite can be chiselled into smaller chunks, relative to their size, so you'll get ten 500g pieces of granite with one 5 kg piece.
