Text Description: Dark grey-brown hbl-pyx-plg dense clast from the top of the Layer 2 section. Top of Layer 2 is dominated by banded pumice, most of it darker. This is one of the few homogenous clasts in the bunch. Is Basaltic Andesite starting to make inroads at the end of Layer 2? And if so, why are the burnt pumice horizons at the bottom of Layer 3 all white clasts (so it seems)?
