Obsidian is found in really deep creeper caves with magma and water. Magma + Water = Obsidian You need a 3x5 rectangle of obsidian and light it with flint and stone.
It's technically possible but rare for phenocrysts to be found in an obsidian. This would require the magma rising to the surface and cooling quickly.
Obsidian is usually found in caves underground where flowing water hits still lava.
No, obsidian is also called 'volcanic glass,' since it is a product of cooled lava. Since there are no volcanoes in Louisiana there will not be any natural obsidian.
Someone found it centuries ago.
My 8 year old found a large piece of obsidian in dansville ny this weekend. We are amazed by its size and beauty
Obsidian is an extrusive igneous rock. Volcanic in origin, it is very common in recent lava flows. Obsidian is primarily made of glass. Obsidian is amorphous, lacking any crystal structure found in gemstones. For more details, try asking the question - "What is obsidian"
Obsidian is an glassy, extrusive, igneous rock that is found in areas that have experienced rhyolitic eruptions. Obsidian is formed when the rhyolitic lava comes into contact with water. This quick-cooling results in the glassy texture of obsidian.
