Is "added damage" applied when no base of that type?

So let’s say my skill does base void melee damage (and no other base damage). I have a sword with an affix of “+30 melee lightning damage”. Will this lightning damage be applied to my skill? And will all my “increased lightning damage” mods be applied to the lightning damage? Thanks!

Yes both of your statements are correct.

Additional info. if you have things like % increased melee damage, that would then increase the inherent void melee damage and the added lightning melee damage.
