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 1, English, - basaltic%20andesite%20flow
