Boulder

A rounded geometrical rock shape of an appreciable size. The formation of boulders can be produced as a result of a pile-up of different phenomenons, which amongst others are: - As a result of the increasing weathering process favoured by the fracturing that normally affects this type of rock, separating rectangular prisms of rock from it by the differential erosion of apexes and edges. - Due to the erosive action of the glacial moraines.
