Why is pumice extrusive?
Pumice is extrusive because it forms from rapid cooling of lava on the Earth's surface, preventing the formation of large mineral crystals. This rapid cooling results in the formation of a highly porous and lightweight rock with a frothy texture.
How is pumice taken from the earth?

Is pumice a rock that cooled slowly inside Earth's crust?
No. Pumice cools very rapidly above the surface. It is a glassy rock. Glass forms when lava cools too quickly for crystals to form.
On HorseIsle's Pumice Isle where is Eros' wife?
She is at the southern eastern part of pumice. She is at the southern eastern part of pumice. By the wierd looking tree (the bigger tree) and is on the southeast side of it.
What is the metamorphic form of pumice?
The metamorphic form of pumice is known as "pumiceite." This form of metamorphic rock is created through intense heat and pressure acting on pumice, which causes it to recrystallize and change its mineral composition. Pumiceite typically has a more compact and dense structure compared to pumice.
Is pumice rare?
it depends what part of the world you come from. because pumice is a type of rock produced by volcanoes if you lived in a part of the world where ther are lots of volcanoes then no it would not be a rare substance but if you lived in a part of the world that ther was no volcanoes then pumice would be rare .Pumice is not rare it is a very common volcanic rock.
Whey are pumice crystal's small?
Pumice doesn't have crystals at all, as it cools too quickly for them to form.
Did pumice form underground?
No. Pumice forms above ground as frothy molten rock erupts from a volcano.
In what part of the world is pumice found?
africa
How does pumice form?
Pumice is an igneous rock that forms when magma traps gas bubbles and cools quickly. The gas dissipates and leaves the distinctive porous nature of the pumice
Why is pumice special?
Pumice is considered special because it contains volcanic glass. It is a powdered or dust form of volcanic rock and the way pumice is formed is very unique.
Why does pumice have no crystal structure?
Pumice is made of glass. Glass forms when molten rock cools too quickly for crystals to form.
