This is how geologists collect lava



This is geologist Tim Orr at Hawaii’s Kīlauea volcano.

Lava is collected for analysis that shows information about its chemical composition and information about activity inside the volcano e.g Kilauea's 1997 lavas are chemically different from lavas from 1985 to 1997. Analyses show that magma was supplied by 2 distinct magma bodies.https://somee.social/posts/750263
