Can basalt fiber bridge the gap between glass and carbon?
According to the Fraunhofer report, the basalt composite showed a specific strength 40% higher than E-glass, and a specific stiffness 20% higher than the glass composite. Basalt could be a good choice for applications needing higher performance than glass, but where the cost of carbon can't be justified.

It deforms instead of shattering like Carbon fiber.
