Granite is an item that can only be mined at the 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 Life Points unless the player has waterskins in inventory, or is wearing an Enchanted water tiara. Prior to January 2007, no water was required in the quarry.
