Hot rocks/Fire Rocks. Igneous Rock . Igneous rocks form . when molten rock cools and solidifies. . Molten rock is called magma when it is below the Earth’s surface and lava when it is above.. when molten rock cools and solidifies. Sedimentary rocks cover ~ 75% of Earth’s surface. ~ 5 % (by volume) of Earth’s outer 10 miles. Contain evidence of past environments:. Important resource. Coal, oil, and other fossil fuels. Groundwater resources. (pages 102–106). 1. Describe how sedimentary rocks form.. 2. List and describe the three major types of sedimentary rocks.. Objectives. write these down!. Sediment. Erosion. Deposition. C. ompaction. Metamorphism. Metamorphic rocks: appear to have changed in their structure or chemical composition since their creation or formation.. Originally sedimentary or igneous. Altered by heat, pressure, or exposure to hot fluids in earth’s crust. Rocks that crystallized directly from a melt. Igneous rocks . Form as magma cools and crystallizes . Rocks formed inside Earth are called . plutonic. or intrusive rocks . Rocks formed on the surface . HIGHER-GRADE REGIONAL METAMORPHICS. Gneiss and Eclogite. 2. High-Grade Regional Metamorphic Facies. Rocks in this laboratory represent high to very high grade regional metamorphic rock. Facies represented are the amphibiolite, granulite, and eclogite facies. CONTACT AND DYNAMIC METAMORPHIC ROCKS. Hornfels, Skarns, Talc-Tremolite Schist, and Epidosite. 2. Contact and Dynamic Metamorphism. The rocks in this lab are formed either by contact metamorphism or by dynamic metamorphism associated with movement along a fault. Bell ringer: . Looking at the pictures, what do you think metamorphic rocks are? . What are Metamorphic Rocks? . Metamorphism means “to change form”.. Metamorphic rocks are rocks that form when . Copy the table below and explain the following clues that can be found in rocks.. . Clues. What the clue tells us?. Magnetic particles in rocks.. Fossils in the rocks.. Ripples in the rocks.. Minerals in the rocks. Types of Rocks. Rock: an aggregate of one or more minerals. Igneous Rocks: crystallize from a magma. Sedimentary Rocks. Clastic: formed by the erosion of pre-existing rocks. Chemical/Biochemical: precipitated from chemical reactions. Color . Texture. Light. Dark. Fine. Coarse . Igneous rocks are classified according to their. . origin. , . texture. , and . mineral composition. .. Origin . D. id it harden inside the earth or on the earth’s surface?. Sedimentary Rocks.
