(Redirected from List of longest bridges in the world) This is a list of the world's longest bridges more than three kilometres long sorted by their full length above land or water. Span refers to the longest spans without any ground support. Note: There is no standard way to measure the total length of a bridge.
But the smaller crystals mean that the rest of the cooling happened very quickly. If a rock has both crystal types, it means that the mamga spent some time in a magma chamber, where the large crystals grew, then was violently erupted onto the surface, where the small crystals were formed.
The magma in volcanic pipes is usually one of two characteristic types, which cool into igneous rock known as either kimberlite or lamproite. The magma itself does not contain diamond; instead, it acts as an elevator that carries deep-formed rocks (xenoliths), minerals (xenocrysts), and fluids upward.
