LOOKING BACK TO YOUR LESSON
Try to go back in time when your previous teacher in science called you in a
recitation and asked the difference between igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic
rocks. Did you find it difficult to distinguish one type of rock from the other? Do you
still remember how scientists identify and classify the many rocks that we have
around? Yeah, rocks are found everywhere! In this lesson, the students will study
how igneous rocks are formed and what are its major classification. But before you
proceed to the lesson and activity proper, let’s try an exciting warm-up. Later, if your
answers are all correct you will earn special points for your superb performance.

BRIEF INTRODUCTION
A. Igneous Rocks: How do igneous rocks form?
Igneous rock from the Latin name “ignis” meaning fire or magmatic rock, is
formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. The formation of
magma is a consequent process from partial melts of existing rocks in either
earth’s mantle or crust. Natural melting is caused by one or more of three
processes such as an increase in temperature, a decrease in pressure, and or a
change in composition. Solidification into rock occurs either below the surface as
intrusive rocks or on the surface as extrusive rocks. Scientists used this
classification in order to determine the origin of the rock. Igneous rock may form
with crystallization to produce granular, crystalline rocks, or without
crystallization to form natural glasses. Igneous rocks occur in a wide range of
geological settings: shields, platforms, orogens, basins, large igneous provinces,
extended crust, and oceanic crust. Thus, igneous rocks can be intrusive or
extrusive based on geological settings.
B. Which igneous rock is coarse-textured? fine-textured?
Intrusive igneous rocks also known as plutonic or abyssal make up the majority
of igneous rocks. This type of igneous rocks originates from magma that cools and
solidifies within the crust surrounded by pre-existing rock. The magma cools slowly
inside the volcano, thus making the rocks coarse-grained or coarse textured.
Accordingly, the central cores of major mountain ranges consist of intrusive igneous
rocks, usually made of granite. When exposed by erosion, these cores (called batholiths)
may occupy huge areas of the earth's surface. On the other hand, there are intrusive
igneous rocks, called volcanic or hypabyssal rocks that form near the surface and they
are usually medium-grained or medium textured rocks. They can generally be identified
with the naked eye. It can also be classified according to the shape and size of the
intrusive body and its relation to the other formations into which it intrudes such as
batholiths, stocks, laccoliths, sills, and dikes. Can you give other examples of intrusive
igneous rocks?
Extrusive igneous rocks or volcanic rocks, are formed at the crust's surface, a
consequent process of the partial melting of rocks within the mantle and crust. They
cool and solidify more quickly than intrusive igneous rocks. They are formed by the
cooling of molten magma on the earth's surface. The magma, which is brought to the
surface through fissures or volcanic eruptions, solidifies at a faster rate. Hence such
rocks are smooth, crystalline and fine-grained. Basalt is a common extrusive igneous
rock and forms lava flows, lava sheets and lava plateaus. Some kinds of basalt solidify
to form long polygonal columns. The molten rock, with or without suspended crystals
and gas bubbles, is called magma. It rises because it is less dense than the rock from
which it was created. When magma reaches the surface from beneath water or air, it is
called lava. The volume of extrusive rock erupted annually by volcanos vary with plate
tectonic setting. Extrusive rock is produced in the following proportions: divergent
boundary: 73%, convergent boundary (subduction zone):15%, and hotspot: 12%. What
are the other examples of extrusive igneous rocks?
Note: You can perform the following activities through collaborating with a partner. You
can first answer the activities individually then just communicate your results after.

REMEMBER
This module has a subtitle Precious Igneous Rocks. Why do you think igneous
rocks are precious? Let’s find out!
Bear in mind that igneous rocks are divided into two types based on geological
settings or location and these are:
a. Intrusive igneous rocks also known as plutonic igneous rock are found on the
deep part of the earth, forms when magma is trapped deep inside the earth, and
great globs of molten rock rise toward the surface. Some of the magma may feed
volcanoes on the earth's surface, but most remains trapped below, where it cools
very slowly over many thousands or millions of years until it solidifies. Slow
cooling enables the individual mineral grains to have a very long time to grow, so
they grow to a relatively large size. Intrusive rocks have a coarse-grained texture.
b. Extrusive igneous rocks also known as volcanic igneous rocks are produced
when magma exits and cools above (or very near) the earth's surface. These are
the rocks that form at erupting volcanoes and oozing fissures. The magma, called
lava when molten rock erupts on the surface, cools and solidifies almost instantly
when it is exposed to the relatively cool temperature of the atmosphere. Quick
cooling indicates that mineral crystals don't have much time to grow, so these
rocks have a very fine-grained or even glassy texture. Hot gas bubbles are often
trapped in the quenched lava, forming a bubbly, vesicular texture.
So, what makes igneous rocks precious? The individual mineral grains called
stones or gems found particularly in intrusive igneous rocks make them precious!
They can be used in making jewelry or fashionable accessory.
