- Dug using the same method as limestone blocks
- 1x Silicified Sandstone Block = 1 High Relief Carving
Anhydrite (Item)

- Dug using the same method as limestone blocks

Creating Shabti Dolls

Shabti Mould (Item)
- Same process as Nail Mould, made on a Mason's Bench from 1 Medium Stone, loaded into a Kiln. The moulds remain after firing, but can be removed.

1 Faience requires 1 Clay and 1 Small Quartz and is fired normally in a kiln that has been upgraded with a Shabti Mould.

1 Shabti Doll is created on any type of Glazier's Bench, takes 90 seconds, and uses 1 Faience (consumed) and 1 db of molten Glass.

Carving a High Relief on a silicified sandstone block has a progress bar on the block displayed in percentage, and triggers DEX and FOC timers (Dex being longer duration - 1m 30s at 4 dex). Amount of progress made each click appears to vary.
