Pumice is a lightweight volcanic rock that floats on water. It is formed when lava cools quickly and traps gas bubbles inside, creating a porous and abrasive texture.
The Pumice is a very lightweight rock, typically white, gray, or cream. It has a distinctive foamy, sponge-like appearance due to countless tiny gas bubbles trapped within it. This makes its texture rough and airy, unlike any other common rock.
