Revisions (July 26, 2008)
[edit]I have edited this article for spelling, grammar and syntax. I have also added a link to the Columnar Basalt web page Geological Survey of India.
I have added two "citation needed" tags:
- The first tag is for the statement about the dimensions of St. Mary's Isles. Without a citation the dimensions are unverifiable, and therefore seem to be original research.
- The second tag is for the statement regarding the laminar flow of lava having caused the basalt formations. I am not an expert in the field of geology, so I cannot verify the accuracy of the causal scenario described. However, the link (reference 2) to the Geological Survey of India (GSI) does contain some information regarding the formation of the basalt columns. I would appreciate it if someone with knowledge of geology would correct/reference the statement of the cause of the columns. Otherwise, I will revise it with inferences from the GSI link.
