1 IGNEOUS ROCKS

2 Igneous Rock – rock formed when magma cools and solidifies

3 Felsic Rocks – light colored rocks made of aluminum, potassium, silicon, and sodium
Mafic Rocks – dark colored rocks made of calcium, iron, and magnesium

4 Intrusive Igneous Rock – magma that cools underground
Slow cooling of magma = Large crystal rocks

5 Extrusive Igneous Rock – magma that cools after erupting onto the earth’s surface
Fast cooling of magma = Small crystal rocks
