Volcanic deposits. Rocks coloured by various volcanic mineral deposits. Iron salts produce the reds, pinks and yellows, whilst decomposing mica causes the greens, and manganese the purple. Photographed in Death Valley, California, USA. Colour like this can be found in all the mountain ranges that contain volcanic deposits inside Death Valley.
