Les éruptions andésitiques se manifestent par des coulées massives, qui vers le Nord-Ouest donnent une structure stratifiée caractéristique. Aux environs des villages de Narmanb et Pitgir, j'ai remarqué dans des coulées andésitiques à augite et hornblende des intercalations de dépôts sédimentaires. 2, record 1, French, - coul%C3%A9e%20and%C3%A9sitique%20%C3%A0%20augite

A basaltic andesite flow was emplaced over the tephra, heating and fusing it into a coherent mass. Emplacement of the basaltic andesite caused secondary mobilization of the fusing tephra resulting in the distorted layering (flow-banding) observed in the fused tuff. The basaltic andesite also partly mixed with the rhyolitic liquid to produce a thin zone of dacite. 3, record 2, English, - basaltic%20andesite%20flow
