is obsidian permeable
An obsidian rock is an extrusive igneous rock that forms when a volcano erupts and has no time to crystallize, so it has a glassy texture. Obsidian rocks are generally black i â¦ n color.o rock is completely impermeable, but some porous rocks like shale and pumice are mostly impermeable, because â¦ the pores are not interconnected, thus not allowing fluids or gases to pass through them. This is why shale makes a good cap-rock, and pumice floats instead of sinking. 2 people found this useful.
