Question

This photograph shows a nearly horizontal layer of basalt that
now crops out as a cliff along the Hudson River, across from
New York City. It is parallel to layers of sandstone above and
below, and is younger than all of those layers. The basalt
intruded at 190 Ma, as Pangaea was breaking apart. What is this
body of basalt, and in what geologic setting did it form?
