Do you still need obsidian to upgrade the workbench for troll armour upgrades?

Isn't obsidian a mountains biome material? It could be the case but I always considered troll to be Black Forest since it's the only place I have ever seen them. Good question. The wiki doesn't mention anything about workbench requirements.
