👉 Pyelitic is a geological term that refers to rocks made up of silicate minerals such as calcite, dolomite, and quartz. These types of rocks are often found in areas where they were formed from hot, acidic processes like volcanic activity or hydrothermal vents. Pyelitic rocks can be either igneous or metamorphic, depending on their composition and the conditions under which they formed. Pyelites are typically found in sedimentary basins or in the surface of a volcano.
