Množina: andesites

A dark gray volcanic rock.
Volcanic igneous rock, intermediate in silica content between rhyolite and basalt. It is characterized by a large quantity of feldspar minerals, giving it a light color. Andesite erupts from volcanoes at destructive plate margins (where one plate of the Earth's surface moves beneath another; see plate tectonics), including the Andes, from which it gets its name.
