andesite

andesit {u}geol.

• The main ore zones are located within sedimentary units which lie above a rhyolite footwall and below an andesite hanging wall (the Comstock Andesite member).
• The volcanoes are formed by basaltic andesite, andesite and dacite.
• Volcanic rocks found at Volcán Putana include basaltic andesite, andesite and dacite.
• Raven Crag and the Benn exhibit rock of the Birker Fell Formation, composed of plagioclase-phyric andesite lavas with subordinate sills.
• Nevado de Longaví has chiefly erupted andesite, which forms about 80% of the volcano.

• Lava flows of Scafell Dacite cross the fell, interspersed with andesite and hybridized andesite porphyry.
• The Bearwallow Mountain Andesite is composed of calc-alkaline volcanic rock ranging from basaltic andesite to dacite, but predominantly andesite.
• On Antigua, the south of the island is mainly calc-alkaline volcanic rock such as dacite and quartz basalt or andesite, along with limestone lenses, agglomerate and tuff formed during the Oligocene.
• Pilavo is a volcano in Ecuador. It is more a shield volcano than a stratovolcano and was active about 20,000/40,000 - 8,000 years before present with basaltic andesite-andesite lava flows.
• The cones are constructed by andesite and basaltic andesite and may be of Pleistocene-Holocene age.

• El Negrillar has erupted basaltic andesite containing olivine, andesite containing either olivine-pyroxene, pyroxene or pyroxene-hornblende, and dacite.
• Base from the observations, the study of the stone tools (andesite and chert) has proven that the andesite tools were functionally tools, although they may not as efficient as chert flakes.
• Slag Hill andesite consists of up to 70% dark brown volcanic glass, with the plagioclase matrix displaying varied degrees of trachytic texture.
• A basaltic andesite (or andesite) enriched in magnesium and depleted in titanium, with more than 8% MgO and less than 0.5% TiO2, is termed a boninite.
• Andesite is usually light to dark gray in colour, due to its content of hornblende or pyroxene minerals.

• Lava flows contain andesite and dacite [...] of relatively uniform composition, the former containing amphibole.
