Where does blocky lava form?

Answer 1

Blocky Lava is thick, viscous lava that does not travel far from the erupting vent. Blocky Lava usually oozes from a volcano past cool layers and forms fragmented, jumbled heaps of sharp-edged, smooth-faceted blocks. Hence the term.

Answer 2

Blocky lava is created when very viscous lava flows form large blocks rather than clinkers. Blocky lava has a thick crust, and less churning, which results to rough big blocks instead of hashed and sharp rubble.

Answer 3

Lavas of intermediate composition commonly form a somewhat different type of flow, known as a block lava flow. Flows of more siliceous lava tend to be even more fragmental than block flows. Basaltic lava in the form of a chaotic assemblage of angular blocks; aa.

Answer 4

A blocky lava flow is a flow of extremely viscous molten rock. It does not look like the classic image of a glowing red river. It looks rather like a crumbly mass of rock, moving so slow that often you can't even see the movement Occasionally you may see a red glow in the cracks that form in the crust of rocks on the surface.

Answer 5

Blocky lava forms when viscous lava flows slowly and begins to cool and harden. This type of lava typically occurs in basaltic lava flows and can be identified by its angular, block-like shapes. Blocky lava formations are often found in volcanic areas where basaltic eruptions occur.

Answer 6

There are many types of lava rock (rock formed from lava), but in all processes, the rapid cooling of lava at or near the surface creates this extrusive igneous rock.

Answer 7

It forms in a hole of rcks or dirt and magma in there to;)
