ContentsTop (m)Base (m)
Dominant lithology (= the big piece). Very glassy, but the glass is heavily altered to dark red palagonite(?). Sparsely phyric with tiny plagiocasle +/- olivine (few).
Very sparsely phyric with plagioclase. Bery glassy and fresh. Moderately vesicular with small to large vesicles. A light green-grey layer beneath the glass.
Highly phyric with olivine +/- plagioclase +/- clinopyroxene. Moderately vesicular with tiny to small vesicles. Two separate pieces.
Highly phyric, but not as much as 03. Mostly olivine +/- plagioclase +/- clinopyroxene. Moderately vesicular with medium/sized vesicles. No glass, unlike 03.
Sparsely to moderately phyric, mostly plagioclase plus some olivine. Highly vesicular with small vesicles. A thin layer of glass is present.
Sparsely phyric with small plagioclase and rare larger olivine. Has a slightly glassy margin. Moderately vesicular with large stretched vesicles.
Sparsely to moderately phyric, mostly plagioclase with sparse olivine. Moderately vesicular with stretched pulled apart vesicles. No glass is apparent.
Moderately phyric, mostly plagioclase with rare olivine. Two generations of vesicles (1 sparse 5 mm; 2 many tiny). Some Fe-staining. No glass apparent. One big piece.
Very similar to 03, including a glassy margin
