Lava rocks are formed by a variety of minerals. The most common minerals are pyroxine, olivine, and feldspar. Sometimes low quantities of hornblende, mica, magnetite and quartz are also present. These stones are generally very porous, so, there are numerous empty spaces on their surface for liquids or gases to flow through. This happens because of the presence of gas bubbles in the lava or magma flow, which form holes on the surface of basalts during the cooling process.
