2 Major Rock Groups 2

3 IgneousSedimentaryMetamorphic Rocks are melted due to extreme heat creating magma. New rocks are formed when magma cools down. Rocks form at Earth’s surface when other pieces of rocks, plants and animal material, and dissolved minerals are compressed together. Rocks formed when exposed to high heat and pressure causing physical and chemical changes to the rock. Extrusive rocks form from cooling quickly on Earth’s surface Intrusive rocks form from cooling slowly under the Earth’s crust Broken Rocks Chemical Rocks Organic Rocks Foliated Non-foliated

11 11 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic SEDIMENT SEDIMENTARY Uplift Cooling magma Weathering Erosion Transport Deposition Pressure

12 12 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic SEDIMENT SEDIMENTARY Uplift Cooling magma Weathering Erosion Transport Deposition Pressure

13 13 MAGMA Volcanic IGNEOUS Plutonic SEDIMENT SEDIMENTARY METAMORPHIC Uplift Burial Pressure & Heat Cooling magma Weathering Erosion Transport Deposition Pressure

14 14 MAGMA Volcanic (extrusive) IGNEOUS Plutonic (intrusive) SEDIMENT SEDIMENTARY METAMORPHIC Uplift Burial Pressure & Heat Melting Cooling magma Weathering Erosion Transport Deposition Can you see any shortcuts? Pressure

15 15 MAGMA Volcanic (extrusive) IGNEOUS Plutonic (intrusive) SEDIMENT SEDIMENTARY METAMORPHIC Uplift Burial Pressure & Heat Melting Cooling magma Weathering Erosion Transport Deposition Pressure

16 Three major rock groups. It is powered by the interior heat of the Earth Affected by energy from the sun It involves processes on the Earth’s surface as well as the Earth’s interior It connects the “water cycle” & with the “tectonic cycle” In Conclusion…
