Detailed Description
Obsidian CliffDie nach Norris "Obsidian Cliff" benannte Klippe ist vor 180.000 Jahren aus einem dickflüssigem Rhyolith-Lavafluss entstanden. Die senkrechten Säulen haben sich durch Kontraktion bei der Abkühlung der Lava gebildet, wobei die Längsachsen der Säulen senkrecht zu den Grenzflächen der Lavaströme stehen. Obsidian Cliff war eine wichtige Werkstoffquelle für prähistorische Völker im Yellowstone Nationalpark nahe Gardiner, Montana. Abgebaut wurde Obsidian hier das erste Mal vor ca. 12.000 Jahren. |
