Opal is not considered a rock but actually a mineraloid gel. It is deposited at relatively low temperatures. One of the characteristics if igneous rocks, sometimes called fire rocks, is that they are formed at high temperatures. Whether an igneous rock forms below ground, or on or near the surface, it's all about heat forming the rock. Opal cannot take its form under that kind of heat.
Emerald is considered a mineral. Minerals are not considered rocks, though they can be found in them. Emeralds are formed in veins of magma that has flowed into the crust and formed a vein. As is cools it forms crystalline structures. Emeralds form here as well as many other minerals.
An opal is not a metamorphic rock - it's a mineraloid gel which is deposited at relatively low temperature and may occur in the fissures of almost any kind of rock, being most commonly found with limonite, sandstone, rhyolite, and basalt.
Opal is actually a mineraloid gel, not a mineral or a rock by their definition.
Opal is not a rock, but a mineraloid gel.
selenite is a mineral
No. A mineral is not inherently extrusive or intrusive. Mica can be found in intrisive igneous rocks and in metamorphic rocks.
Dacite is extrusive. Its intrusive equivalent is granodiorite.
A diamond is a mineral not a rock but I guess it extrusive because it happens pretty close to the surface of a volcano.
Extrusive
It is actually a mineral that appears in both extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks.
Peridot is olivine, which is a mineral, not a rock. It is found in both intrusive and extrusive rocks.
selenite is a mineral
quartz itself, but you will find fragments of quartz of all sizes in both sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
No. A mineral is not inherently extrusive or intrusive. Mica can be found in intrisive igneous rocks and in metamorphic rocks.
Intrusive and extrusive
Dacite is extrusive. Its intrusive equivalent is granodiorite.
Extrusive and intrusive are terms that apply to a type or formative method of igneous rock. Magnetite is not igneous, nor is it a rock. Magnetite is a mineral, formed by the processes of crystallization.
A diamond is a mineral not a rock but I guess it extrusive because it happens pretty close to the surface of a volcano.
