EISCO Volcanic Tuff Specimen (Igneous Rock), Approx. 1" (3cm) - Pack of 12
Brand: EISCO
Ash and dust deposited during explosive volcanic eruptions can eventually become compacted and lithified, forming large packages of tuff. These tuff layers leave a record of the size and intensity of the volcanic eruption, and are used by geologists to estimate rate of activity. This sample is perfect for exercises in igneous rock classification.
