Pumice Formation
Pumice formation took place millions of years ago. There are a variety of Pumice Uses and the Pumice Reserves are found in many countries around the world. The rocks in the earth’s crust continuously undergo changes in their composition which leads to formation of other rocks. Each rock has a unique formation process. Formation of Pumice is explained below:
