The edges and top of a pluton will be cooler and thus more able to start growing phenocrysts before eruption, but depending on conditions, the phenocrysts can be sourced throughout some plutons.

Thanks for the tip on that Apollo episode. It was a good watch
You made mineralogy and petrology very interesting . BTW what's the name of the town on your introduction? Thanks...
Sorry for my delayed response. That is the town of Golden, Colorado, the home of the Colorado School of Mines.
so much fun to watch
Do you have a link to the notes presented at 7:20. I tried poking around Itunes, but couldn't find them. Thanks and keep up the great work!

Does porphyritic basalt indicate a certain area of a pluton, in relation to normal basalt?

Thanks, it makes easy to study!
@Jericho Billy Sorry? I dont see the point. I dont know anything about you....
I enjoyed 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks.
can you tell with electron microscope without mineral test for sure if a rock is not from mars knowing they have the same minerals as earth?
calvin brush A mass spectrometer would do you better. Isotopic differences are a key diagnostic.
thank you for the information.
😯🙏👍👍
I have stones and rock I do not know its kind Do you have a number or email sent to you to see and know what kind of?
I don't do geology over pictures. I suggest you contact your local geology museum or department.

look on:the most unique rock: tell me what you think
Don't think I can find what you're talking about. I keep getting most unique rock stars. But I can say, avoid using "most" with "unique". ;)
I never studied chemistry, I know ive studied hating my life.
