  4. Texture of igneous rocks • Texture is controlled by cooling rate: • Extrusive rocks- • Cool quickly and are fine grained • (small crystals) • Have a shinierfinish becausethey cool fast.

  5. Texture of igneous rocks • Intrusive • Cools slowly and are coarse grained • (large crystals)

  6. Chemistry of igneous rocks

  7. Now lets look at some pictures and see if you can tell them apart!

  8. Intrusive or extrusive? (Hint: Look at the crystals) (for answer click on picture)

  9. Igneous or extrusive Hint: it’s shiny. (for answer click on picture)
