Pumice is a light-colored, extremely porous igneous rock that forms during explosive volcanic eruptions. It is used as aggregate in lightweight concrete, as landscaping aggregate, and as an abrasive in a variety of industrial and consumer products. Many specimens have a high enough porosity that ...
Scoria is a porous rock that is darker and denser than pumice.lrosebrugh / Getty Images Pumice andscoriaare two similar, commonly-confusedigneous rocks. Scoria or "lava rock" forms when dissolved gases in magma come out of solution, producing bubbles that are frozen in shape when the molten ...

- Pumice ( /ˈpʌmɪs/), called pumicite in its powdered or dust form, is a volcanic rock that consists of extremely vesicular rough-textured volcanic gl***...- use of pumice stones also made the stone washing process harder to control, contributing to the method's decline. Too...
Based on the compositional contrasts between different phases, various phases can be identified in a rock. Pumice clasts, characterized by isolated crystals surrounded by a low-density matrix, are ideal for the application of this technique. We present our first results obtained using X-ray ...
The depth profiles of sulphide mineral abundance (more abundant pyrite and chalcopyrite in the deeper part) and whole-rock chemical compositions (higher Zn and Pb concentrations in the shallower part) of the Northern Mound are consistent with the formation model reconstructed from Kuroko-type VMS ...
Pumice stone has been used for centuries to remove rough and hardened skin, particularly on the feet. Pumice is a frothy volcanic rock formed during explosive volcanic eruptions of acidic and highly viscous magma. Bubble-shaped openings, i.e., vesicles,...
(2017) reported that tezontle (volcanic rock) and WS litter did not differ in terms of VV deformity in broilers. In contrast, Khan et al. (2023) found a higher incidence of VV deformity in broilers reared in plastic-grid flooring than in zeolite-added litter and WS. In this study, ...
