Which type of lava do you prefer, mafic or felsic? Mafic lava has a lower viscosity than felsic lava due to its lower silica content.
I like felsic, and if you like felsic lava you get to join a club w/ me and Christine! ![]() |

idk the difference.. Mafic is used for silicate minerals, magmas, and rocks which are relatively high in the heavier elements. The term is derived from using the MA from magnesium and the FIC from the Latin word for iron, but mafic magmas also are relatively enriched in calcium and sodium. Mafic minerals are usually dark in color and have relatively high specific gravities (greater than 3.0). Felsic, on the other hand, is used for silicate minerals, magmas, and rocks which have a lower percentage of the heavier elements, and are correspondingly enriched in the lighter elements, such as silica and oxygen, aluminum, and potassium. The term comes from FEL for feldspar (in this case the potassium-rich variety) and SIC, which indicates the higher percentage of silica. Felsic minerals are usually light in color and have specific gravities less than 3.0. Common felsic minerals include quartz, muscovite mica, and the orthoclase feldspars. The most common felsic rock is granite, which represents the purified end product of the earth's internal differentiation process. all u really need to know is that felsic is better, if u didn't want to read that |

Felsic lava is not as High in temperature, but it is a lot more thicker. Its like a penis.
