>>Do you think it would be wrong to infer Marum's pyroclastics and green stuff are "olivine dominated fragmental and tuffaceous material," or just wishful thinking?<<

Wishful thinking yes, but also certainly logical, and imo, highly probable. Good eye in spotting that, Joe.

A few links for those who wish to learn a lil about relevant topics--

Volcanic and Geologic Terms (glossary):
volcano.und.nodak.edu
eg., Pyroclastic: Pertaining to fragmented (clastic) rock material formed by a volcanic explosion or ejection from a volcanic vent.

'Pyroclastic Flow' images (Mt.St.Helen):
volcano.und.nodak.edu
Pyroclastic flow deposits are easily eroded by wind and water because they are made of loose ash and pumice.
-[This would mean that the discovery of such material must be found proximal to source]-

Several related links to definitions, etc:

Images of dormant volcanoes (eg. of pyroclastics, tuff):
