12 5. ______- minerals that can be mined at a profit ores

13 6. ______and _______- two most abundant elements in the Earth’s crust siliconoxygen

14

15 7. rock- mixture of ________, ______________, _____________, and ________________ 8. Rock cycle- rocks are formed by __________, _______, ____, ________, _______, _______, __________ and ___________ minerals volcanic glass organic matter other materials weatheringerosionheat pressuremeltingcooling compactioncementation

16 9. Major Rock types A. IGNEOUS B. SEDIMENTARY C. METAMORPHIC

17 10. _____________- rocks made from molten materials  ______- underground melted materials  ____- above the ground melted materials Igneous rocks magma lava

18 A.Intrusive- formed _____ Earth’s surface and eventually uplifted and uncovered by __________ and _______; magma cools ______; _____ crystals B. Extrusive- formed when lava cools ___________ Earth’s surface; cools ____; _____ crystals under weathering erosion slowly large at or above fastsmall

19 11. sedimentary- 75% of all rocks on the _______; the only rocks that _________ on the Earth’s surface surface originate

20 A.Methods of formation: 1) __________ (breaking down) and _______ (the moving around) of rock particles 2) __________- pressure that squeezes out the air and water 3) ___________- water that is dissolved with minerals “glues particles together and then they hardens weathering erosion compaction cementation

21 B. Classification: 1) ________- broken pieces of other rocks and shells are cemented together; shale,sandstone, conglomerate 2)________- minerals are withdrawn from a solution or left behind after evaporation; halite and some limestone clastic chemical

22 3) _______- rock formed from once living materials  _____- formed from shells of coquina ___- formed from dead plants that have been buried and pressurized organic chalk coal

23 11. Metamorphic rock- rocks that have changed due to ____ and ________ A. ________- contains parallel bands of minerals B. ____________- no banding; massive in form; mineral grains grow and rearrange heat pressure foliated non-foliated
