Rocks… what are the different types and how are they formed?

EXTRUSIVE igneous rocks are from cooled lava on the surface of the earth. Igneous

EXTRUSIVE igneous rocks are from cooled lava on the surface of the earth. Igneous rocks form from molten rock cooling and hardening on OR below the surface of the Earth. INTRUSIVE igneous rocks form from magma cooling slowing inside the earth.

These intrusive igneous rocks have larger crystals because they cooled very slowly inside the

These intrusive igneous rocks have larger crystals because they cooled very slowly inside the earth.

These extrusive igneous rocks cooled so quickly on the earth's surface they have very

These extrusive igneous rocks cooled so quickly on the earth's surface they have very small or no crystals at all.

In Conclusion… • The rock cycle demonstrates the relationships among the three major rock groups • It is powered by the Earth’s heat • It involves processes on the Earth’s surface as well as the Earth’s interior • It connects the “water cycle” with the “tectonic cycle”.
