High Lava Plains
The High Lava Plains are located in central Oregon. It is a flat region that has been uplifted to about a mile above sea level. There is high volcanic and tectonic activity in this region.
In the area you will find many geologic mineral sample such as obsidian, that forms from rapidly cooled viscous lava and also balsalt rock, which is also formed by rapidly cooled lava. Due to the unigue geologic features of the area the one plentiful supply of mineral has been depleted.
