An igneous rock is cooled magma. So first it would have to melt. From there it could become any igneous rock depending on the environment.
The answer is Shale. Slate is a metamorphic rock derived from shale, granite is an intrusive igneous rock, and pumice is a vesicular extrusive igneous rock.
Slate and gneiss are examples of metamorphic rock.
Magma subjected to cooling becomes igneous rock. Igneous rock then is subjected to weathering and erosion forming sediment which becomes compacted and cemented as sedimentary rock. Both sedimentary rock as well as Igneous rock when subjected ti heat and pressure become Metamorphic rock. This cycle goes on and on and is called the rock cycle.

no slate is an igneous rock
Metamorphic rocks underground melt to become magma. When a volcano erupts, magma flows out of it. As the lava cools it hardens and becomes igneous rock.
No, slate is a metamorphic rock that is formed by shale
It becomes igneous rock
No. It becomes igneous rock.
lava becomes igneous rock by cooling down and hardening -ctd
Yes because, when it melts and cools off then, it becomes an igneous rock.
The sedimentary rock melts,which causes magma. When the magma cools it becomes an igneous rock.
It melts then it becomes solid
A quick example: Near shore sedimentary is subducted due to the collision of tectonic plates. The sedimentary rock gradually becomes slate from low grade metamorphism due to heat and pressure. The slate then becomes a higher grade metamorphic rock, like schist. If the increase in heat and pressure continue with subduction, the rock will eventually melt. If the product of this melt is erupted by a volcano or becomes a plutonic extrusion and solidifies, it will form an igneous rock.
The answer is Shale. Slate is a metamorphic rock derived from shale, granite is an intrusive igneous rock, and pumice is a vesicular extrusive igneous rock.
Igneous rock becomes sediment due to exposure to chemical and mechanical weathering at or near the surface.
