|Name=Borax

'''Borax''' is a mineral used in [[Leather Working|leatherworking]], [[forge]] and [[Dye]] creation.  

Borax can be found as an ore in [[Rock|sedimentary rock]] (chalk, chert, conglomerate, limestone, argilite, sandstone and shale). It can also be found in surface deposits.

Borax must first be powdered, either with a [[hammer]] or in a [[quern]] before use. Powdered borax is used in [[Leather Working|leatherworking]] to make diluted borax, necessary for creating soaked hides. Powdered borax is also needed to create [[Anvil#Welding|iron anvils]], when welding the top to the bottom piece, and for making the lid of coffins for the steel cementation furnace.

Powdered borax is also used to create [[Dye|white dye]].
