High-level Description: Glassy scoria. Clasts are ~5 mm in diameter on
average, very vesicular and angular. Vesicles are ~1 mm and roughly spherical.
Scoria very fresh, with very shiny, glassy surfaces and sharp edges
surrounding vesicles, suggesting that it hasn't experienced much chemical
weathering. High angularity indicates that scoria was not transported far.
Angular, irregularly-shaped clasts have clear fractures, which appear concave
and have very sharp points, and vesicles are clearly outlined along the edges
of the scoria. Clasts fit together, suggesting post-depositional settling and/
or compaction.
