What kind of rock is found in a shield volcano?
Shield volcanoes are made primarily of basalt.
What rock is a obsidian and basalt?
Obsidian and Basalt are both Igneous rocks. They are made from hardened lava from volcanoes.
What kind of lava is flowing from volcanoes in Hawaii?
regular lava, du(probably low silica actually)
What volcanoes are made of basaltic lava?
Stratovolcanoes, also called composite volcanoes are generally not made of basalt. While they may occasionally produce basalt, much of their material is andesite or dacite.

Where was the basalt slab found?
Basalt is the result of lava flows from volcanoes. Basalt flows and or 'slabs' can be found anywhere volcanoes are. In fact, the entire islands of Hawaii are really just a huge basalt slab.
What is the origion of basalt?
it comes from magma inside the volcanoes then it cools and it turns in to basalt
What makes basalt?

What is a rock that is unique to volcanoes?
Rocks unique to volcanoes include basalt, andesite, rhyolite, scoria, pumice, and tuff.
What kind of rock is associated with volcanoes?
