1 REMINDER 2 chapters covered next week Sedimentary Rocks Soils and Weathering (first half) Learn vocabulary for both! Turn to Neighbor: Without using your book or notes, try to remember which te mineral is made of : Independent tetrahedra? Single-chains? Double-chains? Sheets? 3-D Framework? Which of the above has the most Silica? Least? What are these large minerals from the Museum of Natural History, NY? (About 4 feet tall!)

DEMO: Oil Viscosity Highly Viscous Felsic Lava Low-Viscosity Lava Mineral Growth ANIMATION Museum of Natural History, NY. Rare minerals from Pegmatites As molten granite crystallizes, the melt that remains becoems enriched in water and rare elements such as B, Ta, and Nb. These elements concentrate in the melt because they are not taken up by the minerals crystallizing from it. Eventually, enough water builds up that steam forms. Gem and ore minerals containing rare elements form in the pockets of steam-and water-rich melt. In the presence of water, minerals can grow to enormous sizes. 5

I recommend that you write out your answers (synthesize your thoughts and notes and put the answers into your own words). If something doesn t make sense or to just get some feedback, come see the tutors or me during my office hours. Rock ID Activity Recommend setting samples up into 5 texture columns and 4 compositional rows, just like on naming table. ALSO set up the Bowens Reaction Series minerals alongside the rocks, so you can see how they match. There are some duplicate names in the boxes. Remember: half of next week s quiz will contain any question from the question sheet. 12
