palagonite การใช้
- A composite of sideromelane aggregate in palagonite matrix is called hyaloclastite.
- These layers have red-orange-brown colours and contain some palagonite.
- Some rocks have undergone palagonite-forming alteration.
- The canyon was created by progressive erosion by flowing water from glaciers through the rocks and palagonite over millennia.
- All the islands have been built up in submarine eruptions and consist of alternating layers of palagonite tuff and lava.
- The cone consists of steeply dipping layers of mainly palagonite, formed by the alteration of the original basaltic glass.
- Fragments of these glasses are usually surrounded by a yellow waxy layer of palagonite, formed by reaction of sideromelane with water.
- Sideromelane often forms during explosions of submarine volcanoes and subglacial volcanoes, and often occurs as fragments embedded in a palagonite matrix, forming hyaloclastite deposits.
- "' Palagonite tuff "'is a tuff composed of sideromelane fragments and coarser pieces of basaltic rock, embedded in a palagonite matrix.

- On the lower flanks of the cone, the rocks are mostly palagonite bombs from fire-fountaining that preceded the filling of the crater with lava.
- Palagonite soil is a light yellow-orange dust, comprising a mixture of particles ranging down to sub-micrometer sizes, usually found mixed with larger fragments of lava.
- On top of these volcanic layers are sedimentary materials, sometimes of great thickness, formed mainly of sand, pebbles, and large blocks of rolled palagonite with abundant cavities.
- The products of Surtseyan eruptions are generally oxidized palagonite basalts ( though andesitic eruptions do occur, albeit rarely ), and like Strombolian eruptions Surtseyan eruptions are generally continuous or otherwise rhythmic.
- The internal structure of this volcano, which is in height above sea level ( at Pico das Cruzinhas ), is marked by layers of basaltic pyroclasts of various thicknesses ( between centimetres and metres thick ) forming a lithificated palagonite tuff.
