The Rock Cycle. Objectives: Define Geology Describe the three main groups of rocks Explain the rock cycle. Geology. Root words: “Geo” means Earth “logos” means study of. Geology then literally means “Study of Earth”.

THE PRIMORDIAL EARTH Hadean and Archean Eons Evidence of Anoxia. Lack of oxidized iron in the oldest sedimentary rocks. Urananite and pyrite are readily oxidized today, but are found unoxidized in Precambrian sediments Archean sedimentary rocks are commonly dark due to

Lecture on Rocks. There are 3 types of rocks. Igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary. Some rocks have air bubbles because of the way they are formed. Rocks such as Millstone Grit have these properties and are otherwise known as Sedimentary Rocks.
