1. Valuable or economically important mineral deposits may be associated with igneous rock bodies. Examples are disseminated magma tic deposits of diamonds of South Africa. Deposits of chromites in Montana.
answer in sedimentary rocks: 1. Coal is burnt to create energy.
Gypsum is used to make plaster of Paris.
Sandstone and limestone are used as building stone.
Limestone is also used for hard core in roads.
Slate is used for roofing tiles.
Clay is mixed with sand and used to make bricks.
Iron ores are mined and smelted to create iron metal.
Smectite clay is used as a digestive cure.
Salt is an essential food answer in metamorphic rocks: 1. Marble is a metamorphic rock that is used to make floor tiles, counter tops and it is carved into statues and was used extensively in the building of the Roman Coliseum among other great historic buildings. Slate is another metamorphic rock that is used in buildings for floor tiles and roofing tiles and it was once used for blackboards. answered by:

The melting and cooling of a metamorphic rock will allow it to turn into an Igneous rock.

There are types of igneous rocks that are hard (eg granite) and others that are soft (eg volcanic ash). There are types of metamorphic rocks that are hard (eg gneiss) and others that are soft (eg marble). Thus "hardness" is not a characteristic that can be used to distinguish between the two.

Neither. Foliation is a term used in assesing metamorphic rocks, not igneous rocks such as rhyolite.

The classification is based on the processes that formed the rock.

Sedimentary rocks (such as sandstone and limestone), igneous rocks (such as granite and basalt), and metamorphic rocks (such as marble) are all used in masonry.
