· Some of the richest, most fertile soil on the planet is found near active volcanoes, which explains why people throughout civilization have been willing to settle near volcanoes despite the potential dangers. In the 1930s, researchers in Europe used finely ground rock dust to treat and improve the productivity of degraded forest lands.

Application Research on Mechanical Strength and Durability of Porous Basalt
The porous basalt is composed of 60 % plagioclase, 35 % pyroxene, 5 % ferric oxide and clay minerals. The coarse aggregate is made of 4.75 ~ 19 mm porous basalt gravel as shown in Fig. 1, and the fine aggregate is made of mechanized sand broken by porous basalt gravel. Its physical properties are shown in Table. 2.
