Types of Basaltic Trachyandesite and Metapelite

Some rocks according to their use or texture are classified into different types. Know more about Basaltic Trachyandesite Texture and Metapelite Texture. Types of Basaltic Trachyandesite are Alkaline Basalt, Boninite, High Alumina Basalt, Mid Ocean Ridge Basalt (MORB), Tholeiitic Basalt, Basaltic trachyandesite, Mugearite and Shoshonite whereas the types of Metapelite are Not Available.During historic times, some rocks depending on their hardness were used to create Pictographs and Petroglyphs. Rocks which are hard were generally not used. Pictographs are paintings or drawings that have been placed or created on the surface of rock.
