Stone Harps and Lava Piles The Alcantara River in eastern Sicily carves its way down through layers of volcanic basalts in a system of canyons known as Gole dell 'Alcantara. The gorges formed 8,000 years ago, after a lava flow from a minor peak of Mount Etna flooded the river valley and blocked the Alcantara's flow. The water slowly eroded the basalt into steep-walled gorges, exposing the interior structure of the lava flows. Because the lava was quickly quenched in the river water rather than cooled slowly, the basalt crystallized into fractured, prismatic structures. Some fractures formed vertically, in what you may recognize as columnar basalts, which are locally referred to as "organ piles" for their resemblance to the pipes of an organ. Other structures formed horizontal "wood piles" or arching and radiating "harps" and "rosettes." The swirling patterns of dark stone looming above the narrowly coursing river make for a striking geologic wonder on an island already bursting with volcanic attractions. -CEL Sources: http://bit.ly/2uyXjOd http://bit.ly/2w0xBS8 Image: Wolfgang Fraedrich (distributed via imaggeo.egu.eu) http://bit.ly/2wEk2pk
