Scoria

Scoria is a type of volcanic rock that forms when lava cools quickly. It is usually dark in color and has lots of small holes. People use scoria in gardening and landscaping to help soil retain water.

外見

The Scoria is a dark, porous volcanic rock known for its rough, bubbly texture. It often appears black, dark gray, or reddish-brown, looking like hardened lava foam. Its many holes, created by trapped gas bubbles, make it visually distinct and surprisingly lightweight.
