👉 Radiolitic is a word that refers to a type of rock that is characterized by having a high concentration of silica in its mineral composition. This means that the rock has a higher percentage of silica (silicon) than other rocks, which makes it more resistant to erosion and weathering compared to less silica-rich rocks. Radiolitic rocks are often found in places where there are strong winds, earthquakes, or volcanic activity, as they can be subject to rapid transformation into new types of rock.
