Natural Geometric Rock Formations at David Shumate blog

Natural Geometric Rock Formations. Basalt rock columns made of hardened lava. Discover 10 of these incredible sites. For the first time, scientists have managed to reproduce the chemical processes that build those. As the lava cools, it contracts and cracks, often. Nature has a way of sculpting the world around us in fascinating and unexpected ways, and nowhere is this more evident than in. For the first time, scientists have. These rock formations, with their unique hexagonal shapes, are sculpted by natural forces that can create stunning natural formations that rival the work of the world's finest architects. Columnar basalts form by cracking when igneous rock rapidly cools after being emplaced. Columnar basalt is a type of igneous rock formed from the cooling and solidification of lava flows. Our planet contains some surreal natural landscapes. Unusual rock formations like the devil's postpile in california and the giant's causeway in northern ireland have drawn curious visitors for generations. The mystery of the strange 'giant's causeway' has been solved. They are so regular and geometrically organised they look hand cut or man made. Those 120° angles—the same angle between two adjacent sides of a hexagon—are generally maintained until the lava completely cools, which leads to the overall shape and pattern of blocks so commonly seen in nature, the researchers explain.
