Description
All our rocks are carefully selected for educational study. Average specimen size is shown below. These are ideal for classroom teaching and are a size that can be easily passed round the classroom for students to get a feel for each type.
Basalt is a mafic extrusive igneous rock formed from the rapid cooling of lava rich in magnesium and iron exposed at or very near the surface of a terrestrial planet or a moon.
Filled cavities in lavas are called amygdales, and a rock full of them can be called amygdaloidal. The amygdales are usually white in colour.
