Groundmass: | altered |
Features: | volcanic brecciated |
Vesicle abundance: | absent |
Grain size: | cobble (>64 mm) |
Grain shape: | mixture |
Sorting: | poor |
Components: | volcanic non-vesicular |
Cement: | calcite | other |
Sample bagged: | yes |
Bucket number: | 49 |
Rock name: | Poorly sorted volcanic breccia with a rounded pebble |
Comments: | Mn crust 20 mm thick. Clasts have veins and cracks - alteration of rocks is red - some veins are filled with white mineral which does not react with HCl acid and is softer than knife (zeolite) - may show jigsaw fitting of clasts partially - one clast (4cm long) is rounded suggesting transportation of the clast |
