An outcrop of brown-red porphyritic basalt on the dirt road near the top of the hill to the north of the village. Fractures and vugs contains a variety of zeolites and calcite. Note that erionite is not really present here, but we rather have submicroscopic "erionite" domains in offretite crystals.
