The ash of a volcano comes from the pulverized rock and mineral fragments that are ejected during an explosive eruption. These fragments can vary in size, from tiny particles to larger chunks of volcanic debris. The ash is carried into the atmosphere by the force of the eruption and can travel long distances, settling on the ground as a layer of fine particles.
yes they are but only because of metamorphosis and the reaction the mineral has. The mineral takes years maybe century's to cool down. it has a crystallized diamond shape and can be found in many shapes, and colors.
When igneous rocks from a volcanic eruption cool, they can form either intrusive or extrusive rocks. Intrusive igneous rocks form when magma cools slowly beneath the Earth's surface, resulting in larger mineral grains. Examples include granite and diorite. Extrusive igneous rocks form when lava cools quickly on the Earth's surface, resulting in smaller mineral grains. Examples include basalt and pumice.
Tephra refers to any airborne particles from a volcanic eruption, and includes pumice, cinders, dust, and ash. Ash refers to particles smaller than 2 mm, and volcanic dust particles are less than 0.06 mm in diameter. Volcanic blocks, also known as bombs, are the largest pieces of tephra and are more than 64 mm in diameter (baseball size or larger) and may be as large as small cars.
It is a volcanic rock.

I believe that there are mudslides. The air becomes filled with smoke that is toxic and it can be fatal if breathing is prolonged. It destroys land, but it can also make new land, because after lava has cooled and hardened it becomes rock. Ash fills not only the air but the ground. Usually there is a little more damage after an explosive eruption compared to a quiet eruption. Scientists can tell the difference based on the amount of Silica, a mineral in the Earth, in the lava. I hope my information was helpful.

Volcanic glass is not a mineral. It's composition is complex, and their is no crystalline structure.

Its a organic mineral.

Volcanic glass does not technically contain mineral crystals. The definition of a mineral requires a crystalline structure. Secondly, the chemical composition of volcanic glass could vary widely. Minerals have definite parameters for chemical composition.
Mineral luster is broadly classified as metallic or non-metallic.
