Volcanic rocks are two types: 1) Rounded cobbles, finely vesicular with white (calcite?) material filling holes, groundmass has some micro-crystalline, black (augite-hornblende?) and off white (plagioclase?). 2) Flat plates that look like the tops of evacuated pillows (trap doors). Flat on top, lumpy and vesicular on bottom. Bottom has numerous barnacles and tube worm constructions that indicate a protected cavity. Rock is hard (conchoidal fracture), has brownish white groundmass with black specks. Some palagonite (?) as outer rind. Bottom surface coated with white material.
