At a granular level‚ rocks are composed of grains of minerals‚ which‚ in turn‚ are homogeneous solids formed from a chemical compound that is arranged in an orderly manner. The aggregate minerals forming the rock are held together by chemical bonds. The types and abundance of minerals in a rock are determined by the manner in which the rock was formed. Many rocks contain silica (SiO2); a compound of silicon and oxygen that forms 74.3% of the Earth’s crust. This material forms crystals with other

Igneous Textures Cooling rates influence igneous rock textures. Rapid cooling at the earth’s surface results in tiny mineral crystals that can only be seen under a microscope. The resulting extrusive igneous rocks have an aphanitic texture. Rocks that form as magma cools slowly underground (intrusive igneous rocks) develop phaneritic textures‚ in which individual mineral crystals can be seen without a microscope. Some igneous rocks exhibit visible crystals (phenocrysts) in a matrix of tiny

The rock cycle is very important to us because it explains the way the different types of rocks are formed on earth. Geologists classify rocks in three groups‚ depending on the Earth processes that made them. Some rocks are formed by heat and pressure. Other rocks are formed by weathering and erosion. The three rock groups are igneous‚ sedimentary‚ and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from melted rock that has cooled and solidified. They can form underground or above ground. Underground
