Rhyolite
A rhyolite volcano is a volcano that erupts rhyolitic lava or pyroclasitc material. Rhyolite is an igneous rock formed from the eruption of extremely viscous silica rich material. Eruptions involving rhyolite can be extremely large and violent. In some cases, however, rhyolite can build into lava domes or form thick, extremely slow lava flows.
Rhyolite refers to a pale fine-grained volcanic rock. It is formed when magma that would have formed granite managed to erupt onto the surface of the Earth.
Rhyolite can be any age.
Rhyolite is a fine grained textured igneous rock. Fine grained igneous rocks form rapidly at the surface, their crystals are to small to be seen by an unaided eye.
No, rhyolite is a silica-rich volcanic or igneous rock.
