| Vesicular pillows (15-20% vesicles, <2 mm across, spherical) with some thin but fresh glass. Mildly phyric with 5% plagioclase phenocrysts and ~1% olivine phenocrysts, both 2-3 mm across and occurring separately or as clusters. | ||
| As for 43-01. | ||
| Light grey lava, more finely vesicular with smaller (~1 mm) phenocrysts of plagioclase and olivine. Altered green-grey to reddish exterior and to a lesser degree throughout. | ||
| Similar to 43-01, but denser with fewer smaller phenocrysts and ~5% vesicles. Outer surface is altered to shades of green-grey and red. Smooth, formerly glassy crust is dark red-brown. | ||
