    starts 1.7 billion years ago with the Idaho Springs gneiss found at the upper parking lot of Red Rocks Amphitheater. This rock is made up of potassium feldspar and quartz predominantly‚ which makes the rock appear mostly white in color‚ however‚ hematite stains the outside to give it a red color. The Idaho Springs gneiss was created by two geological events‚ both the growing of the North American basement rock and the formation of super continent Columbia. This can be seen because the Idaho Springs gneiss

    Introduction Weathering is the breakdown and alteration of rocks and minerals at or near the Earth’s surface into products that are more in equilibrium with the conditions found in this environment. Most rocks and minerals are formed deep within the Earth’s crust where temperatures and pressures differ greatly from the surface. Because the physical and chemical nature of materials formed in the Earth’s interior are characteristically in disequilibrium with conditions occurring on the surface.

    Rock Cycle

    • 271 Words
    • 2 Pages

    First off you should know what a rock cycle is. The rock cycle is a fundamental concept in geology that describes the dynamic transitions through geologic time among the three main rock types: sedimentary‚ metamorphic‚ and igneous. Rocks make rocks. The cycle begins within the core of the earth. The molten rock in the core of the earth is called magma. Once the rock is forced to the earth’s lithosphere or crust‚ the molten rock becomes lava and thereby begins its long journey of development

    Metamorphic Rocks

    • 315 Words
    • 2 Pages

    A metamorphic Rock can be formed by simply being under the earth’s surface‚ being exposed to extremely high temperatures and a huge amount of pressure from the layers of rock above. These rocks can be formed by tectonic processes‚ some which include‚ continental collisions (this is a process that causes friction‚ distortion and horizontal pressure). These rocks can also be formed when rock becomes heated rapidly by the intrusion of a hot molten rock‚ (called magma) and it comes from the earth’s interior

    • 12 Pages

    chemical and structural adjustments in solid rocks to physical and chemical conditions which have been imposed due to changes in pressure and temperature or both. Metamorphism occurs below the surface zones of weathering and cementation. Conditions of metamorphism differ from the conditions under which the rocks in question were originally formed. Metamorphism produced as a result of the progressive increase in temperature and pressure‚ i.e. by burial of a rock within the earth‚ is termed prograde metamorphism

    Due to the discovery of shock metamorphism rocks (suevite breccia) and melted original rocks scattering in the southern area of Bukit Bunuh‚ it was suspected that the area had the possibility of being impacted by meteorite. The founded boulders made the archaeologists from the Centre for Global Archaeological Research (CGAR) of Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) to propose of the possibility of Bukit Bunuh as a meteorite impact site. This proposal was led to intense research in the area by utilizing

The asymmetric and symmetric stretching bands of CH2 are observed in the range from 2900 to 2700 cm-1 and this stretching band is mainly coupled with the CH3 stretching vibration. Mirtazapine has only one CH3 group. The C-H stretching vibrations of methyl are observed between 3000 and 2900 cm-1. A methyl group
