the value of the Poisson's ratio is between 0.1 and 0.35. The modulus value increases with the increase in applied pressure during the measurement. This is due to the closure of cracks or joints in the rock mass under stress, making the material stiffer at higher stresses. The

Feb 16, 2004In figure 3, the uranium value for andesitic basalt is 0.4–0.6 ppm and the thorium value is 4.5–4.8 ppm. Its range of distribution is located on the lower left-hand side of the cross-plot. In comparison, the uranium value for rhyolitic tuff has a wider range, and the thorium value is 16.0–17.0 ppm, higher than that of other igneous rocks.

On Earth, rocks such as basalt, andesite, phonolite, etc. have well-defined ranges of bulk chemical composition, even though they also have distinctive mineralogies. The same type of approach now may be necessary for the burgeoning collection of Martian igneous rocks that we have in the form of meteorites, and a proposed scheme is illustrated

Rocks are rated on the on the Moh's Hardness Scale which rates the rocks on the scale from 1 to 10. Rocks with hardness 1-3 are soft rocks from 3-6 are medium hardness rocks and 6-10 are hard rocks. The hardness of Obsidian is 5-5.5 whereas its compressive strength is 0.15 N/mm 2. Streak is the color of rock when it is crushed or powdered.

Rubies from these sources can have higher iron content, which can make the rubies darker and less intense in color. Higher iron content in the chemical makeup of a ruby can also mask the red fluorescence

Basalt is dark, fine-grained and often vesicular (having gas pockets). The pockets may be filled with secondary minerals, e.g. quartz, zeolite minerals, calcite, opal, etc. and then it is called amygdaloidal (a-mig-duh-loy-dal) basalt. The name may have originated with Pliny who used the Ethiopian word basal for iron-bearing rocks. (*) Basalt

Half-lives of these isotopes and the parent-to-daughter ratio in a given rock sample can be measured, then a relatively simple calculation yields the absolute (radiometric) date at which the parent began to decay, i.e., the age of the rock. Of the three basic rock types, igneous rocks are most suited for radiometric dating.
