and particles

How minerals form:
1. Underground in the magma process (most minerals)
2. Re-form deep within the earth in the pressure process.
3. Near the surface in the evaporation (of water) process
![Page 13: © 2006 Pearson Prentice Hall This work is protected by United States copyright laws and is provided solely for the use of instructors in teaching their](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110400/56649db45503460f94aa5893/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
How Minerals form • The Magma Process:
1. Molten (liquid) rock in a magma chamberAt, near or under earth’s surface, rises
2. The magma begins to cool and atoms, ions and molecules form various mineral compounds.
3. The molecules of the compounds mass together to form crystals.
![Page 14: © 2006 Pearson Prentice Hall This work is protected by United States copyright laws and is provided solely for the use of instructors in teaching their](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110400/56649db45503460f94aa5893/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The Pressure Process:1. Rock is exposed to high pressures and temperatures, and the
minerals begin to break down.
2. As pressure and temperature continue, the molecules RE-FORM into new minerals.
3. The minerals are elongated in shape due to the pressure.
![Page 15: © 2006 Pearson Prentice Hall This work is protected by United States copyright laws and is provided solely for the use of instructors in teaching their](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110400/56649db45503460f94aa5893/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The Evaporation Process:
1. Ions (such as salt or calcium) are dissolved in water.
2. The water evaporates, and the ions form minerals
such as halite and calcite.
• Examples: halite (NaCl salt)» limestone (calcite)

Mexico's Cueva de los Cristales (Cave of Crystals) contains some of the world's largest known natural crystals—translucent beams of gypsum as long as 36 feet (11 meters). Volcanic activity that began about 26 million years ago created Naica mountain and filled it with high-temperature anhydrite gypsum. When magma underneath the mountain cooled and the temperature dropped, the anhydrite began to dissolve and for millions of years have been deposited in the caves in the form of huge selenite gypsum crystals.
