Formation

• Solidification of magma• Made up of inter grown mineral crystals

• Environments a. Magma – below ground b. Lava – above ground

Page 7: Http:// v=wv4M4wror58. ROCK Composed of one or more minerals Classified by 1.Origin – how they were formed 2.Mineral Content 3.Texture

a. Texture

Determined by the rate of cooling, refers to the size, shape and arrangement of crystals which grew out of the cooling magma/lava

1. Intrusive

• You can visibly see the ____________

• cooled slowly, deep beneath the Earth’s surface

• large to medium crystals

Mineral crystals

2. Extrusive• Very small or no _______________

• cooled quickly on earth’s surface

• glassy to fine (can see with a hand lens) crystals

Mineral crystals

3. Porphyritic

• Contains crystals of two markedly different sizes

• identify with the majority of crystals

4. Vesicular

• Porous from trapped gas pockets

b. Color

Based on the mineral content or what it is made of

Mafic

Dark colored, high in Iron (Fe) and Magnesium (Mg), more dense

Felsic

• Light colored, high in Aluminum (Al) and Silicon (Si), less dense

HOW DO YOU KNOW ITS AN IGNEOUS ROCK

1.Mineral Crystals or

2.Vesicular – Gas pockets
