Rocks and Minerals to be studied for International Earth Science Olympiad

Rocks

There are three classifications of rocks: igneousmetamorphic, and sedimentary. Any type of rock can be transformed into another kind. Igneous rocks are created from solidified magma (rock that has been melted inside the earth), sedimentary rocks are created when smaller bits of rock or sand are cemented together, and metamorphic rock are formed when other types of rocks are subjected to heat and pressure.
