Description
The San Francisco volcanic fields of Northern Arizona northeast of Flagstaff produced a diverse -- and geologically recent -- array of volcanic ejecta. This photograph is of common pumice, defined by its siliceous polymer texture and high porosity, erupted approximately 1000 years ago. The high magnification and elongated silica-rich composition lend a watery texture to this common stone. The indigenous peoples of Arizona would have witnessed this cinder-cone building event.
