➡️ The pore spaces (known as vesicles) in pumice are a clue to how it forms.
➡️ The vesicles are actually gas bubbles that were trapped in the rock during the rapid cooling of a gas-rich frothy magma.
➡️ The material cools so quickly that atoms in the melt are not able to arrange themselves into a crystalline structure.
