The sampling results found three rock types; Rhyolite, Tuff, and Gabro were the most common types found.
1. Rhyoite is a Felsic, extrusive lava rock with Aphantic texture.
2. Tuff is Mafic, intrusive magma rock with multi-texture.
3. Gabbro is Mafic, intrusive magma rock with Porphyritic texture.
The remaining rock samples had the same properties.
