- Pyroclastic flows commonly are produced either by the fallback and downslope movement of fragments from an eruption column or by the direct frothing over at the vent of magma undergoing rapid gas loss.Volcanic froth so formed is called pumice.he term pyroclastic''--derived from the Greek words pyro (fire) and klastos (broken)--describes materials formed by the fragmentation of magma and rock by explosive volcanic activity.

Volcanic rock Pyroclastic rocks are the product of explosive volcanism. They are often felsic (high in silica). Pyroclastic rocks are often the result of volcanic debris, such as ash, bombs and tephra, and other volcanic ejecta. Examples of pyroclastic rocks are tuff and ignimbrite.

Igneous Rocks: How Are They Formed? Hypabyssal (Subvolcanic) Igneous Rock: Hypabyssal rock is a form of intrusive igneous rock that solidifies at medium to shallow depths within the crust, usually in fissures as dikes and intrusive sills. These rocks typically have an intermediate grain size and texture between that of intrusive and extrusive rock.
