Earth’s crustis made up of different kinds of rocks. They differ in appearance because of their different physical properties.
Physical properties depend on:
1. The kind of mineral present in the rock;
2. The amount of different minerals contained in the rock;
3. How the grains of these minerals are arranged and held together.

The Rock Cycle
The different
processes
involved in the
formation of the
three types of
rocks, namely
igneous,
sedimentary and
metamorphic.
It also shows how
rocks change
from one form to another.

IGNEOUSROCKS
![Page 8: Lesson 13: Rocks](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a6012f1a28abcf498b46bf/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Covers about
65%of the Earth’s crust
Igneous means “fire”Formed from the
hardening
of molten rocks.
Magma –
molten rock
Lava –
extruded rock
Intrusive igneous rocks – rocks that
are formed from magma but are not
extruded into the Earth’s surface.
Extrusive igneous rocks –
rocks that have been spewed
out into the surface of the
Earth.
GRANITE
BASALT

Are the oldest
types of rocks.
Considered the
mother of all
rocks.
Also called
primary rocks.

SEDIMENTARYROCKS
![Page 12: Lesson 13: Rocks](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a6012f1a28abcf498b46bf/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Covers about
8%of the Earth’s crust
Sedimentary means “settling”
Composed of layers of sand, gravel, mud and other
sediments that have settled at the bottom of the oceans.
These materials are cemented and hardened into rocks by mean of great
pressure exerted on them below the Earth’s surface.

Mudstone – formed from clay and mud.
They are basically hardened mud.
Sandstone – cemented sand formed
through accumulation of sand deposits or silica
or calcium carbonate.
Conglomerate – made up of coarse-
grained material like round pebbles or gravel
which are tightly packed or cemented together.
Shales – that are fine-grained are almost
waterproof and are good underground basins for
water or oil because they are less permeable.
Mechanical means…

Rock salt or halite – composed of
sodium chloride when a chloride solution is
deposited when water evaporates.
Rocks that are formed from the remains of
plants and animal that have been cemented
together. Examples:
Limestone, Chalk and Corals
Chemical means…

METAMORPHICROCKS

Covers about
27%of the Earth’s crust
Metamorphic means “has been changed”
Once an igneous or sedimentary rock.
Metamorphism –The process by which a rock is changed
into metamorphic form.
