White lava, often referred to as "white basalt," typically originates from volcanic eruptions where the magma contains a high concentration of silica and other minerals. This type of lava can appear lighter in color due to the presence of certain minerals like quartz and feldspar. As it cools, the lava solidifies into a lighter-colored rock, which can exhibit a white or pale hue. The specific conditions of the eruption and the composition of the magma determine the final appearance of the lava.
