Granite Boulders and Stone Boulders are found scattered across the surface of the New World. With the Colonial Tradesmanship Skill learned, these Boulders can be Chipped to receive Stone and Granite. Lifting Boulders found on the surface may reveal Beetles, Grubs, a Salamander, or rarely, a Creepy Centipede or Scorpion, hidden beneath them. Once the Quarrying Skill has be learned you can Dig Stone Boulders from a Quarry or Mountain. With the Granite Excavation Skill learned there is a chance to get a Granite Boulders when Digging on Quarries. This chance is based off your Mines & Mountains Proficiency. Learning Ambitious Excavation will help you Dig out Boulders faster.
With the Quarrying Skill learned Lime Pits can be Dug for Lime Boulders. Lime Boulders Dug from a Lime Pit come in variable sizes, with the bigger Lime Boulders giving more Lime when Chipped, ranging from 100 to 5. From left to right, 100, 25, 15, 10 and 5 pieces. The higher your Mines & Mountains Proficiency the better the chance of Digging up bigger Lime Boulders.
Rarely you will Dig up a very small Lime Boulder. Chipping this Lime Boulder will give you a single Little Limestone. When used in place of Lime in a Ore Smelter, a Little Limestone will increase the number of Bar of Pig Iron, Bar of Copper, and Silver Bars you will receive. However, due to it's rarity, it's best to save them for Smelting Silver Bars.
Rarely instead of the appropriate Stone, you will receive a Whetstone instead. This Whetstones will be at 0% Purity so they are best used as an Inspirational. An Arcane Amethyst is rarely obtained when Chipping Boulders during a Bloodmoon.
A Boomstick can be used to blow up a Boulder. To blow up a Boulder select your Boomstick from your inventory and right-click it on a source of Fire, such as a lit Torch or Fireplace. This will turn your Boomstick into a Lit Boomstick. You must now quickly select your Lit Boomstick and right-click it onto the Boulder you wish to blow up. Blowing up a Boulder will scatter it's Stones in a short radius around where the Boulder was. You can then pick them up if you wish to save them.
