Trasibasal

Sampel geologi Trasibasal yang dipamerkan di House of the Volcano, Pulau Reunion

Trasibasal adalah batuan vulkanik dengan komposisi antara trasit dan basal. Ini menyerupai basal tetapi memiliki kandungan oksida logam alkali yang tinggi . Mineral dalam trachybasalt termasuk alkali felspar, plagioklase, olivin, klinopiroksen dan kemungkinan sejumlah kecil leusit atau analsit.[1]

Penemuan

Trasibasal melimpah di Gunung Etna[2] dan di Gunung Taylor (New Mexico).[3] Dan juga telah ditemukan di kawah Gale di planet Mars.[4]
