The three main types of rocks on Earth are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Sedimentary rocks are created from the accumulation and compaction of sediment particles. Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have undergone changes in temperature and pressure, often deep within the Earth's crust.
Is rocks earth science?

Why must the earth be older than its oldest rocks?
Two points here: rocks are solidified material--early Earth was molten. The first rocks appeared after the molten Earth cooled somewhat. Secondly, Earth's rocks are constantly being recycled through the 'rock cycle'. The oldest rocks on Earth have somehow survived those recycling efforts, but no rock found on Earth (other than some meteorites) is as old as the planet.
Is Earth made of gases or rocks?
the earth is made from rocks although the core is burning gas
How is magma different from rocks on Earth's surface?
Magma is under the surface of Earth's crust. Rocks on earth's surface are well ... on Earth's surface. Magma is also molten rock, not solid rock like the rocks on earth's surface.
