1.1 Formation
Trachyte is an igneous volcanic rock with an aphanitic to porphyritic texture. It is the volcanic equivalent of syenite rock and forms as a result of magmatic differentiation.
Boninite is a type of Igneous rock which is formed through the cooling and solidification of lava or existing rocks.
