4. What is the name of the naturally occurring solid substances found in rocks?

5. What is a mineral?

6. We use these clues to identify unknown minerals

7. What are lustre, colour, streak, cleavage, hardness and fracture?

8. This mineral is rated as the hardest by Moh’s hardness scale

9. What is Diamond?

10. This happens when a mineral or rock break into fragments or rough uneven surfaces

11. What is a fracture?

12. When identifying how a mineral shines under light we call this:

13. What is Lustre?

14. What are the Three Rock Families?

15. What is Igneous, Sedimentary and Metamorphic.

16. This is the name of the molten rock found deep below the earth’s crust?

17. What is magma?

18. These are the loose materials such as bits of rock, minerals and plant and animal remains.

19. What is Sediment?

20. This black rock is an example of extrusive rock that forms when lava rapidly cools. It was used for arrowheads and is volcanic glass.

21. What is Obsidian?

22. What is the parent rock of a metamorphic rock?

23. What is Sedimentary and/or Igneous ?

24. This type of rock is formed from tremendous heat and pressure within the earth.

25. What is Metamorphic Rock?

26. This is the opening in the earth that marks the origin of a volcano.

27. What is a VENT?

28. This is the molten rock that flows down the side of a volcano.

29. What is LAVA?

30. This is the type of fault that moves opposite directions along its side.

31. What is a Transverse Fault?

32. These layers of the Earth are Solid.

33. What is the Earth’s Crust and Inner Core? (Core)

34. Diagrams such as the one below are part of what branch of geology?

35. What is Stratigraphy?

36. This type of fossil would best represent an ancient man trapped in ice.

37. What is Original remains?

38. This type of fossil is formed when water dissolves the calcium carbonate in bones and replaces it with silica?

39. What is Petrified?

40. This type of fault is generated when two plates move away from one another?

41. What is a divergent fault?

42. How old are mountains if they have pointy tops like those found along the Wasatch Front?

43. What are young mountains?

44. Geologist use this principle to infer the relative ages of different layers of rock

45. What is Superposition?

46. These are the two most common forms of weathering and erosion of rocks.

47. Wind and Water

48. This is the force that pulls rocks down and is key in compaction

49. What is Gravity?

50. These are rocks that are completely melted by the inner heat of the Earth

51. What is Igneous?

52. This is the dropping off of sediments

53. What is Deposition?

54. This is the powdery mark left by some minerals when they are scraped against a hard porcelain plate.

55. What is streak?

56. This layer of the earth has the highest temperature

57. What is the inner core?

58. This man is responsible for the Theory of Pangaea

59. Who is Alfred Wegener?

60. This happens when 2 plates collide or converge and one is shoved underneath the other one.

61. What is Subduction Zone?

62. These volcanoes around the Pacific Ocean make up this.

63. What the Ring of Fire?
