What else can I help you with?
What do you call a gap in the earths crust through which molten rock escapes onto the earths surface?
Volcano or shield volcano.
Which type of rock is most commonly found buried deep under mountains or in the Earth's crust?
igneous rocks
Is azurite igneous metamorphic or sedimentary?
Sedimentary.
When does magma become lava?
It should be magma is the hottest because it is usually molten rock that has not reached the surface during an eruption.Lava is 2nd hottest. It is the molten rock we see when a crack in the crust of the earth or a volcano eruption allows molten rock from beneath the crust to come up.
What is the most common type of rock on earth's surface?
Sedimentary Rocks. 75% of rocks exposed to the surface are sedimentary.
What rock is found deep in the earths crust?

Why there is no sedimentary rock deep in Earth's crust?
Below certain depths the heat and pressure will turn sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock.
There's no sedimentary rock deep in Earth's crust?
Below certain depths the heat and pressure will turn sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock.
Why there's no sedimentary rock deep in Earth's crust?
Below certain depths the heat and pressure will turn sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock.
Which rock group makes up least of earths crust?
Just to say: This question refers to rock groups. Not what type of rock.Igneous rocks make up most of the earth's crust.
What are the most common type of rock found at the earths surface and in the earths crust?
The most common type of rock found at the Earth's surface and in the Earth's crust are sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed from the accumulation and lithification of sediments such as sand, mud, and organic debris. Sedimentary rocks cover about 75% of the Earth's surface.
Are you more likely to see sedimentary rocks on the surface or deep in earth's crust?
Of all the rock on Earth's surface, 75% is sedimentary rock. But, sedimentary rock is only about 5% of the whole crust. Unlike igneous rock, which forms underground, sedimentary rock forms from materials at Earth's surface. Which this means that sedimentary rocks are more likely to be seen on the surface. Hope this helps :)
Where does sedimentary rock exist core crust or mantle?
Sedimentary rock covers much of the Earth's crust.
What is evidence in science?
Physical samples of rock extracted (taken) from deep within Earths crust.
What is direct evidence in science?
Physical samples of rock extracted (taken) from deep within Earths crust.
What makes up about 95 percent of the rocks in earths crust?
Igneous and metamorphic rock make up 95% of the rocks in Earth's crust. Only a thin layer is made up of sedimentary rock.
What percent of the earth's crust is sedimentary rock?
Sedimentary rock; this is because the earth is constantly going through the rock cycle and both igneous rock and metamorphic rock have a lot to deal with under the earths surface and sedimentary rocks doesn't it just builds and builds over time which creates 75% of rock the covers the earth surface.
