It is the largest mountain in Medina and more than that, and is located at the foot of the "cemetery of the martyrs", where Muslims buried the dead on Sunday. The geological field study of the rock samples from Mount Sol showed that they mainly consist of reolet rocks, acid flint of microcrystalline and bright red, and it contains quartz, feldspar, plagioclase and small mica minerals. The rhyolites on one mountain sometimes turn into white-green rocks that look more distorted, crackling, and less solid than others. This may be because these rocky areas are in direct contact with the fiery pyrotechnics from below and are exposed to very hot solutions, so they have a transformation type; Very thermal. Light brown dacite is difficult to distinguish from rhyolite because it is similar in origin in composition, texture, and source, except that dacite may contain a higher percentage of some black minerals such as Hornbland and biotite.To read about the landmarks of Al-Madinah Al-Munawwarah, including the Prophet’s Mosque, click here
