Before stepping on the bridge look very carefully at the rocks. This rock is called a breccia (a rock that consists of fragments of one or more older rock types). This rock is made up of lots of light green fragments surrounded by a darker green, fine-grained material (matrix). It has formed as a result of explosive volcanic activity. In this case, the light green fragments consist of a volcanic rock known as dacite (fine-grained quartz and feldspar) so the rock is called a dacite breccia. 4, record 11, English, - dacite%20breccia

porphyritique :[Se dit] d’une roche ignée ayant des gros cristaux pris dans une matrice à grains moyens(texture phanéritique). À ne pas confondre une texture porphyritique avec une texture porphyrique. La seule différence entre ces deux textures se situe au niveau de la dimension des grains composant la matrice. Pour une texture porphyritique la matrice est phanéritique alors que pour une texture porphyrique la matrice est aphanitique. C'est pourquoi une texture porphyritique ne peut pas être d’origine volcanique car la grosseur moyenne des minéraux composant la matrice réflète un environnement où la température diminue plutôt lentement. 4, record 16, French, - rhyolite%20porphyrique

When coined by the New Zealand geologist P. Marshall in 1935, the term "ignimbrite" referred only to flows with emplacement temperatures high enough to cause the fragments forming the deposit to become adhered together or welded; this restriction no longer applies, and the term now includes any pyroclastic-flow deposit, welded or not. 3, record 26, English, - ignimbrite
