How is greywacke different from scoria?
They are two very different rocks. Graywacke is a clastic sedimentary rock, specifically a type of sandstone. It is composed of sand-sized grains of quartz, felspar, and other rock particles with a matrix of silt and clay. Scoria is an extrusive igneous rock characterized by a dark color and holes called vesicles. It is similar to pumice, though denser. It is formed when a volcano explosively ejects lava. Gas bubbles form in the lava and are locked in place when it cools into a rock.
Will scoria float or sink in water?
Scoria is a type of volcanic rock that is typically denser than water, so it will sink in water.
Is scoria permeable?
Scoria is a type of volcanic rock that is generally porous and can be permeable depending on its porosity. The vesicles (holes) in scoria contribute to its permeability, allowing fluids to pass through it.

Is scoria nutritious?
No. Scoria is rock. It is inedible.
Is sandstone a scoria granite or pumice?
None of those. Scoria, Pumice and Granite are igneous rocks. Sandstone is sedimentary.
Can scoria hold fossils?
Schists are formed when a sedimentary rock is deformed by great heat and pressure, deep within the Earth's crust. This deformation means that fossils do not survive in schists. Only less deformed rocks, such as slate and shale, can hold fossils.
What are the properties of scoria rock?
Scoria is a highly vesicular (porous), dark colored volcanic rock.
Is scoria metamorphic?
no, extrusive because it is made by lava not magma.

Is scoria a granite rock?
No. Scoria is a basaltic lava ejected as fragments from a volcano, typically with a frothy texture.

What kind of rock can sandstones be classified as?

What is the color of scoria?
Scoria is usually reddish in color but may be black.
