Definition of A RockA naturally occurring, solid, mixture of one or more minerals or organic matter

Classified into 3 groups based on how they are formed: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic

Texture and composition give clues as to how rocks are formed, and are used to classify and identify rocks

Rocks are always changing form in a cycle called the Rock Cycle

Igneous RocksExtrusive rocks- formed by cooling lava

Texture Can Be:• glassy • porous • fine-grained

Intrusive rocks- formed by cooling magma

Texture Is Always: • coarse-grained

Sedimentary Rocks Formed by:

Weathering (breaking down of rock)

Erosion (movement of sediments)

Deposition (collection of sediments)

Compaction & Cementation (sediments bonding together)

Page 13: Warm-Up: Describe the texture and composition of each igneous rock. A B.

Two Types of Weathering1. Mechanical Weathering

Root Action

Frost Action

Moss

Page 14: Warm-Up: Describe the texture and composition of each igneous rock. A B.

Types of Weathering2. Chemical Weathering:

Oxidation (rust) – Oxygen in air reacts with metals in rocks

Acidic rain water

Sedimentary Rocks (categorized by composition)

Clastic Rocks (rock fragments) • Conglomerates (pebbles) • Sandstones (sand) • Shales (mud & clay)

Organic Rocks (once living) • Ex: limestone(coral and shells), coal (plants)

Chemical Rocks (evaporation)• Ex: rock salt, limestone, geodes, gypsum

Formation of Metamorphic Rock

Page 35: Warm-Up: Describe the texture and composition of each igneous rock. A B.

Types of Metamorphic Rock

1. Foliated - bands or layers Ex: schist, slate, gneiss

Gneiss

Slate

Page 36: Warm-Up: Describe the texture and composition of each igneous rock. A B.

2. Unfoliated - no bands or layersEx: marble and quartzite

Types of Metamorphic Rock

Quartzite
