Two tombstones, located in the same cemetery approximately 10 meters apart, face east. Tombstone A had dates cut into the rock in 1922. Tombstone B had dates cut into the rock in 1892. • Tombstone A contains minerals less resistant to weathering than Tombstone B. • Tombstone A has undergone a longer period of weathering than Tombstone B. • Tombstone A has experienced cooler temperatures than Tombstone B. • Tombstone A was exposed to less acid rain than Tombstone B. Which statement best explains why the dates are more difficult to read on Tombstone A than on Tombstone B?

What is a Rock? • Rocks = Naturally-occurring mixtures of minerals, mineraloids, glass or organic matter.
What is the difference between a rock and a mineral? Rocks are made up of ONE or MORE minerals. A rock can have once-living material in it.
Once a rock is formed, does it stay the same rock forever? • NO!
Rocks are continually changed by many processes, such as weathering, erosion, compaction, cementation, melting, and cooling. • Rocks can change to and from the three types: 1. Igneous 2. Sedimentary 3. Metamorphic
What is the process through which rocks change? • The Rock Cycle—the process through which earth materials change back and forth among the different types of rocks.

What are the types of rocks? • Rocks are divided into 3 groups based on how they were formed: • IGNEOUS • SEDIMENTARY • METAMORPHIC
Igneous Rocks • “Ignis” = Latin for “fire” • Formed from the cooling of either magma or lava • The most abundant type of rock • Classified according to their origin and composition
ORIGIN— Where rocks are formed • Below ground = from magma (intrusive igneous rock) • Usually have LARGE crystal grains (they cooled slowly)
Above ground = from lava (extrusive igneous rock) • Usually have SMALL or NO crystals (they cooled too quickly)
Diorite (an intermediate rock that has mafic and felsic rocks in it)
Sedimentary Rocks • Formed from sedimentsthat are pressed or cemented together. • Sedimentary rocks represent 7% of the Earth’s crust, but they cover 70% of the Earth’s surface.
Sediments • Rock fragments, mineral grains, animal & plant remains. • Water or wind breaks down rock.
These sediments are moved by wind, water, ice or gravity. • Then they are deposited (dropped)
What turns sediments into solid rock? • Compaction=The heavy sediments press down on the layers beneath causing the sediments to fuse together.
Cementation=Dissolved minerals flow between the particles and cement them together.
