The Rock Cycle: There are many different things that can happen to a rock that will change it into a different type of rock. Ex. Weathering/erosion/compaction/cementation.

Rocks come in 3 different forms: sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic. The type of rock depends on the way they were made. The way rocks are formed go.

ROCKS!. Rocks There are 3 rock types: - Sedimentary - Igneous - Metamorphic -All 3 types can be found in Canada.
Metamorphic Rocks  A rock that is subjected to heat and pressure.  They may be formed simply by being deep beneath the Earth's surface.  Being formed.

Weathering, Erosion, and The Rock Cycle MCAS Bootcamp:

Random Fact: How deep can sunlight penetrate through clean ocean water? ~240 Feet

Igneous Rock Formed from cooled lava/magma. Can come from a volcano or when the top of the mantle cools. Ex: Granite, Basalt, Pumice

Sedimentary Rock Formed when rock and plant sediments are deposited and compacted together over long periods of time. Ex: Limestone, Shale, Sandstone Weathering: Breaking down of rock through wind, ice, heat, water, etc. Erosion: Carrying away weathered rock through wind, water, gravity, etc.

Metamorphic Rock When rock is put under intense heat and pressure underground it transforms. Formed from any of the 3 types of rock. Ex: Slate, Marble, Schist
