Mount Price (British Columbia) - Volcanic Hazards - Effects
... Because andesite is the main type of lava erupted from Mount Price, lava flows are a low to moderate hazard ... Andesite lava is intermediate in silica content, indicating that it has a higher viscosity than basaltic lava, but less viscous than dacite and rhyolite lava ... As a result, andesite lava flows typically move slower than basaltic lava flows and are less likely to travel far from their source ...

That maritime suns tinted with a thousand fires,
And whose great pillars, straight and majestuous
In the evening made seem like basaltic caves.”
