Basalt columns are really amazing rock formations that look like they were made by a sculptor. It’s a very hard rock, almost as hard as diamond. When volcanic lava cools down on the surface, it turns into basalt, which is dark because it’s got a lot of iron and magnesium in it. Kinda like hot chocolate that hardens when you pour it onto a plate. Isn’t that fascinating?

Sedimentary rocks are, as the name suggests, formed from the buildup of sediment. This means they form over time on the surface of the Earth over a period of many years.
