2 What type of rock is this? Where or how is it formed?
3 Obsidian Extrusive Igneous Rock No crystals formed Glassy Very quick cooling molten rock (lava)
4 What type of rock is this? Where or how is it formed?
5 Basalt Extrusive Igneous Rock Fine grained (some small crystals) Formed from dark dense lava
6 What type of rock is this? Where or how is it formed?
7 Scoria Extrusive Igneous Rock No crystals formed Forms as a frothy crust on the top of a lava flow or as material ejected from a volcanic vent and solidifying while airborne Many holes formed - gasses released
8 What type of rock is this? Where or how is it formed?
9 Pumice Extrusive Igneous Rock No crystals formed Quick cooling molten rock (lava) Many holes formed - gasses released Floats on water
10 What type of rocks are these? Where or how are they formed?
11 Granite Intrusive Igneous Rock Coarse Grained - can see crystals Contains quartz and feldspar
12 What type of rock is this? Where or how is it formed?
13 Shale Sedimentary Rock Thin, dark gray sheets easily broken Formed from mud and clay being pressed together

42 Comparisons Slate vs. Shale Both thin slices, made of mud and clay, dark color Slate is metamorphic (morphed from shale), Shale is sedimentary Hornfels vs. Slate Both metamorphic rocks made from Shale Hornfels is not foliated and Slate is foliated Sandstone vs. Quartzite Both grainy and made of Quartz Sandstone is sedimentary and Quartzite is metamorphic
43 Comparisons Limestone vs. Marble Both are made of calcite Limestone is sedimentary and Marble is metamorphic Conglomerate vs. Limestone Both sedimentary rocks formed in or near water Conglomerate is clastic (made of pebbles cemented together by moving water) and Limestone is organic (made of shell coral, fecal debri found in shallow water) Gneiss vs. Granite Both contain course grain crystals Gneiss is metamorphic and Granite is igneous
44 Comparisons Quartzite vs. Sandstone Both contain the mineral Quartz Quartzite is metamorphic (pressure and heat), Sandstone is sedimentary (cemented together by water + sandstone or lime) Coal vs. Obsidian Both are black and smooth and contain no crystals Coal is sedimentary and Obsidian is igneous Shale vs. Slate Both made of mud and clay (Slate is made from Shale) Shale is sedimentary and Slate is metamorphic
