ROCKS AND MINERALS

BY: JACOB SIMS, JONATHAN MULLET

EXTRUSIVE IGNEOUS ROCK

  • It forms when lava cool quickly on the Earth's surface.
  • Some examples are pumice, and obsidian.
  • It can form anywhere magma comes to the surface.

INTRUSIVE IGNEOUS ROCK

  • It forms when magma inside the Earth cools slowly.
  • An example would be granite.
  • This type of rock forms anywhere there is volcanic activity.

CLASTIC SEDIMENTARY ROCK

  • It Forms when sediment starts compacting and cementing together.
  • Some examples are sandstone, and shale.
  • It forms wherever there is weathering and erosion.

ORGANIC SEDIMENTARY ROCK

  • It forms when remains of dead things are competed and cemented together.
  • Some examples are coal and limstone.
  • It forms anywhere things have died In the past.

  • heat and pressure forming ribbon-like layers
  • Some examples would be slate and gneiss.
  • It forms anywhere there is tremendous heat and pressure: pr-

QUARTZ

  • It forms beneath the Earth's surface under moderate heat and pressure.
  • It is mined in caves near uplifting and subduction zones as well as ...
  • near volcanoes

  • in a watch or clock.

AGATE

  • It forms beneath the Earth's surface near subduction zones
  • It is mined in caves, near uplifting, and subduction zones.
  • It's hardness and fine-grained surface makes it good for polishing leather.

OLIVINE

  • It forms inside a volcano near subduction zones or near hotspots.
  • It is mined on the surface.
  • It is used in construction for its ability to resist pressure, and in labs for ...
  • it's ability to absorb Co2

CRUDE OIL

  • Crude oil will form anywhere there was once living things that have been
  • buried beneath the Earth's surface after a long period of time.

CRUDE OIL

  • Crude oil is mined beneath the Earth's surface anywhere there were
  • once living things.
  • Crude oil is used for powering factories and vehicles.
