Dec 23 2018 0183 32 In geology pictures of rocks can be used to help you best determine which of the three major types a particular rock belongs to igneous sedimentary or metamorphic By comparing your rock sample with photographic examples you can identify key characteristics such as how the rock was formed what minerals and other materials it contains and where the rock may have come from...
The mantle is the second layer of the earth It is split up into two different parts the lithosphere which is the top part and the asthenosphere which is the bottom part The lithosphere is a dense rock made out of iron and nickel the asthenosphere is a plastic like flu The temperature of the lithosphere is around 300 to 500 degrees...
A rock is any naturally occurring solid mass or aggregate of minerals or mineraloid matter It is categorized by the minerals included its chemical composition and the way in which it is formed Rocks are usually grouped into three main groups igneous rocks metamorphic rocks and sedimentary rocksRocks form the Earth s outer solid layer the crust and most of its interior except for the...
The Earth s outer solid layer the lithosphere is made of rock That means the Earth s crust is made of rock The different minerals in the rocks make different kinds of rock Rock is often covered by soil or water It is beneath the oceans lakes and rivers of the earth and under the polar icecaps Petrology is the scientific study of rocks...
TYPES OF STONE The familiar stone types that are used today are identified through four categories Sedimentary Metamorphic Igneous and Man-made stone I Sedimentary stone came from organic elements such as glaciers rivers wind oceans and plants Tiny sedimentary pieces broke off form these elements and accumulated to form rock beds...
