Basalt
Material Notes: Igneous rock, with a fine texture and grain size < 1 mm (extrusive). It is a basic rock, with a total silica content of 45-55%. Predominent minerals in this generally dark colored rock are horneblende and plagioclase feldspar. Property values are typical of Basalt used in construction. Actual property values will vary from sample to sample.
