Presentation transcript:

Rocks Study Slides

Igneous Rocks Look glassy Have air pockets Have interlocking crystals Name the igneous rocks on the following slides

Obsidian Looks glassy

Granite Has interlocking crystals

Scoria Has air pockets

Gabbro Has interlocking crystals

Pumice Air pockets

Rhyolite Has small interlocking crystals

Diorite Has interlocking crystals hint to remember: “Salt & Pepper” rock - it is light and dark (medium)

Sedimentary Rocks Are made of sediments Have fossils Are salty

Limestone Has fossils

Conglomerate Is made of sediments

Sandstone Is made of sediments

Coal Has fossils/is made of plant and animal remains

Siltstone Is made of sediments

Metamorphic Rocks Are foliated – Banding – Mineral alignment Are unfoliated – Have a “frosty/glazed” look

Gneiss Has banding hint to remember: Looks like a zebra and zebras are “nice” (gneiss)

Slate Has foliation

Marble Non-foliated (“frosty” look)

Schist Has foliation hint to remember: it is so pretty you want to touch it - the picture in your reference table looks like a thumbprint

Quartzite Nonfoliated (“frosty” look)

Quiz Yourself What things can you use to identify a sedimentary rock? What things can you use to identify an igneous rock? What things can you use to identify a metamorphic rock?
