This material is called … • A. overburden • B. underburden • C. shield cover • D. common rock cover Slide will change automatically

  11. GEOLOGIAL PERSPECTIVES - PLANET EARTH GLO 2 – The Rock Cycle • Question 19 • Most of these types of rocks are hidden beneath the surface in Alberta, however, they are revealed in Pelican Rapids.

  23. GEOLOGIAL PERSPECTIVES - PLANET EARTH GLO 2 – The Rock Cycle • The Rock Cycle Song • (Sing to the tune of “Row, Row, Row Your Boat”) • SEDIMENTARY rock Has been formed in layers Often found near water sources With fossils from decayers • Then there's IGNEOUS rock Here since Earth was born Molten Lava, cooled and hardened That's how it is formed • These two types of rocks Can also be transformed With pressure, heat and chemicals METAMORPHIC they'll become. • Can You Make Up Your Own Version of A Song About The Rock Cycle?
