Perlite, found on the Euganean Hills, is formed from rhyolitic lavas rich in silica, typical of volcanic environments. When lava interacts with water, obsidian, a glassy form of volcanic rock, undergoes a hydration process. This leads to the formation of perlite, characterized by a porous structure due to the expansion of volcanic glass. These processes typically occur in underwater volcanic environments or near bodies of water. The presence of perlite in the Euganean Hills is therefore a testimony to their complex volcanic history.

Perlite was mined here. This is a volcanic material that is used for insulation in plaster.
