Page "Magma" Paragraph 56
from
Wikipedia
The presence of volatile phases in a rock under pressure can stabilize a melt fraction.
The presence of even 0. 8 % water may reduce the temperature of melting by as much as 100 ° C.
Conversely, the loss of water and volatiles from a magma may cause it to essentially freeze or solidify.
