Understanding the Three Types of Rocks

Explore the fascinating world of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. Igneous rocks form from volcanic eruptions, metamorphic rocks are altered by heat and pressure, while sedimentary rocks are created from eroded particles. Learn about granite, schist, sandstone, and more!

  1. THE THREE TYPES OF ROCKS!! BY:ESTEFANIA, JASMINE AND ATHENA

  2. IGNEOUS !!! • Igneous rock are formed under or above ground an also formed when volcanoes erupt causing the magma to rise above the surface. • usually small, large mineral crystal sometimes us to make concert has a lot of air space is very lisutis all so called volcanic gas. • Examples of rocks: granite, scoria, arming, and obsidian

  3. METOMORFIC!! • The rocks were once igneous or sedimentary rock and they are under tons and tons of pressure with fosters heat build up • Rock that has undergone change by heat pressure or fluids. • Schist gneiss

  4. SEDIMERTARY!! • Four thousands even millions ,of years little pieces of our earth have been eroded broken down and worn away by wind and water • Sedimentary the term for rocks formed from pre existing rock particles which become lithitel. • Sandstone ;limestone, shale conglomerate ,gypsum

  5. Our rock !!! We have come to a conclusion that our rock is a igneous rock because it has lots of crystals its looks like a obsidian rock and it has little sharp points.
