Atmoclastic

/ætmoʊˈklæstɪk/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or describing the breaking down or fragmentation of rock and minerals through the action of vapor or steam.

Etymology

From Greek atmis (vapor) + klastos (broken, fragmented), used in geology and mineralogy. The root '-clastic' appears in many geological terms like 'pyroclastic.'

Kelly Says

Atmoclastic weathering is a real geological process where steam from hot springs actually breaks apart rock—it's like the Earth's own steam-powered demolition, and it creates some spectacular mineral deposits!
