1.1 Definition
Mangerite is a plutonic intrusive igneous rock, which is essentially a hypersthene-bearing monzonite
Hyaloclastite is an aggregate of fine, glassy debris formed by the sudden contact of hot, coherent magma and cold water or water-saturated sediment

5 Formation
5.1 Formation
Mangerite is a fine-grained, hard rock which is a type of metasomatite, essentially altered basalt. It forms with or without crystallization, either below the surface as intrusive rocks or on the surface as extrusive rocks.
Hyaloclastite is a type of Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of lava or magma.
