A black or dark-colored volcanic glass, usually composed of rhyolite
A volcanic glass that may be clear, black, brown or green in color, which is one of the finest raw materials for the chipping of stone tools
A kind of glass produced by volcanoes
Natural volcanic glass Colour ranges from nearly translucent through black, red and green The best raw material for the manufacture of flaked stone tools
A volcanic glass (also called Apache tears) that is usually black, but occasionally red, brown, grey, green (rare), dark with "snowflakes," or even clear This glassy, lustrous mineral is found in lava flows, and obsidian stones can be massive Obsidian is formed when viscous lava from volcanoes cools rapidly Most obsidian is 70 percent silica
{i} black transparent volcanic rock that is formed from the cooling process of molten lava
dark green or black glass formed by volcanic activity; often used for jewelry, amulets, or for the eyes of statues
Natural glass of volcanic origin that is formed by the rapid cooling of viscous lava. It has a glassy lustre and is slightly harder than window glass. It is typically jet black, but the presence of hematite (iron oxide) produces red and brown varieties, and tiny gas bubbles may create a golden sheen. It is sometimes used as a semiprecious stone. Obsidian was used by American Indians and others for weapons, implements, tools, and ornaments, and by the ancient Aztecs and Greeks for mirrors
A glassy igneous rock with a chemical composition equivalent to that of granite
a type of black stone (volcanic glass) found in the Western U S
Mineral found as volcanic glass and used in jewelry Similar to onyx, but is a translucent black color
A volcanic glass which is one of the finest raw materials for the chipping of stone tools
Silica-rich volcanic rock, entirely made up of blackish shiny glass
A volcanic rock formed into natural glass This rock is usually black but may be found in greenish and reddish colors or banded

Obsidyen (ya da obsidiyen), doğal yollarla oluşan volkanik kökenli bir cam türüdür. Lavın hızlıca soğuması ve kristalleşmeye yetecek kadar zaman geçmeden donmasıyla oluşur. Genellikle felsik lav akıntılarının, soğumanın hızlı olduğu kenar bölümlerinde bulunur. Kristal yapıda olmadığından, keskin kıyıları moleküler inceliğe ulaşabilir. Bu özelliğinden ötürü eski çağlarda ok ucu olarak kullanılmış, günümüzde ise cerrahların kullandığı neşterlerin kesici kısımlarında kullanılmaktadır
