when hot liquid cools
and solidifies.

Classifying Igneous rocks = “Magma vs. Lava”
 Intrusive
igneous rock – igneous
rocks formed when magma cools
slowly beneath the Earth’s surface.
 Extrusive
igneous rock – igneous
rocks formed when lava cools quickly
on top of the Earth’s surface.

fragments of other rocks and minerals.

Chemical sedimentary rock – solutions
of dissolved rocks and minerals.

Classifying Metamorphic Rock – “I’m a changed
rock, honest!”

Contact metamorphism – when rock changes
because it comes in contact with magma.

Regional metamorphism – rock changes at
areas where there is high pressure.
Metamorphic Rock (continued)

Foliated metamorphic -rocks that have
minerals aligned in what LOOKS LIKE layers.

Nonfoliated metamorphic rocks do not have a
pattern in the crystals.
