CommentSamples PR95/24-28 were collected from an 8.7 m thick basaltic dike trending N40W and along a 0.7 m thick pumice fall trending N55E. PR95/26 is poorly consolidated light brownish gray pumiceous tuff, with millimeter-thick fine-grained layers, sampled 1.3 m from the contact with basalt. The sample is well sorted and matrix free-grain supported, with few lithic fragments. PR95/26 was sampled along the same layer of the unit as PR95/24 and 25.
