Notes: VUcr = vesicular upper crust, Mai = massive lobe interior, VBcr = vesicular basal crust, PV = pipe vesicles, VC = vesicle cylinders, HVS = horizontal vesicle sheet. Vesicularity: nv = nonvesicular, spv = sparsely vesicular, hiv = highly vesicular, mov = moderately vesicular. NR = not recovered. Average lobe thickness includes standard deviation in parentheses. * = largest lobe is ~14.2 m and is not included in the average. † = thick lobe, irregular jointing; small lobes, cube jointing.
