Outcrop of the Hatrurim Formation (qv), northwest of the north end of the Dead Sea. Asphalt seeps are well-known in the area.

Combustion metamorphic rocks affected by strong hydrothermal alteration (fossil mud volcano).

The outcrops were exposed during construction of the Jerusalem-Jericho highway across Nabi Musa hill (a double-crested hill covering an area of 0.46 kmยฒ) in 2006. Since then supergene alteration due to seasonal rainwater takes place. Chromatite and unnamed CaCrO4.2H2O form in the dry season.

The hill is located 5 km southeast of the Maale Adummim area.

"Parawollastonite" is also mentioned by Seryotkin et al. (2012).
Pseudowollastonite-bearing paralavas are the products of combustion metamorphism associated with spontaneous burning of methane of mud volcano.
