If you own the land, you can put them to use or sell them for their market value.
Igneous rocks are rocks formed by magma. so the best place to find igneous rocks would be by volcanoes or where a volcano once erupted.
The classification is based on the processes that formed the rock.
igneous rocks started as melted lava and cooled to be rocks. Metamorphic rock started as a sedimentary rock, and was heated up and put under pressure to create the metamorphic rock. Classic example - igneous = obsidian. Metamorphic = marble (marble is limestone that's been heated and squeezed a lot).
Rocks are classified by they way they are formed. There are three main classes of rocks: igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks.
Igneous rocks are formed when magma crystallizes and cools into a solid form. There are two types of igneous rocks--intrusive igneous rocks and extrusive igneous rocks.Intrusive:Intrusive igneous rocks are formed when the melted rock (magma) slowly rises toward, but does not reach the surface. As these pockets of magma cool slowly underground, minerals crystallize and the magma solidifies, becoming intrusive igneous rock, like granite and gabbro.Extrusive:Igneous rocks are also formed when volcanoes erupt, causing the magma to rise above the Earth's surface. When magma appears above the surface, it is called lava. Extrusive igneous rocks are formed as the lava cools above ground. Examples of extrusive igneous rock are basalt, rhyolite, pumice, and scoria.igneous rocks are formed by lavaWell When melted rock cools quickly, it hardens before any mineral crystals can grow large. as a result, igneous rocks that form above ground have small or no crystals :)Igneous Rocks are made of magma and lava because it comes out of a volcanoFrom volcanoes.from lava cooling.Molten rock cools and turns solid.
I put it there to trick you, and I believe it has worked.
To the people that are doing the "Rock Worksheet" the answer for problem #5 is in the paper but the answer is actually (what I put), "Another name for igneous rocks is the rock of fire."

No, igneous rocks are formed from molten rock (Lava, or Magma).
rocks can change form. There are three main types of rocks, sedimentary, Metamorphic and igneous. igneous. sedimentary rocks are rocks formed from sediment. Metamorphic rocks are rocks formed from heat and pressure. If other rocks are put under heat and pressure then they have a chance to change into metamorphic.
If other layers of rock, dirt, dust, and sand are put on top of the igneous rock and the layers are compressed by their own weight, they become a single, unified layer of sedimentary rock. Simple Version: 1. Igneous rock 2. More rocks are put on the igneous rock. 3. The rock on top push down and squeeze the all of the layers into one layer.
Rocks are constantly changing types. The three types are metamorphic, sedimentary and igneous. Igneous rocks are created when magma or lava cools and solidifies. Metamorphic rocks are created when rocks are put under high pressure and high heat, which compacts the molecules in the rocks. Sedimentary rocks are created when small particles of rocks accumulate in an area and are cemented together via pressure or chemical change. Therefore, sedimentary and igneous rocks can become metamorphic rocks if they are buried deep in the earth's crust. Metamorphic and sedimentary rocks can become igneous rocks if they are melted then resolidify from the magma or lava. Metamorphic and igneous rocks can become sedimentary rocks if they are chipped into tiny pieces then accumulate together and become cemented.
The classification is based on the processes that formed the rock.
igneous rocks started as melted lava and cooled to be rocks. Metamorphic rock started as a sedimentary rock, and was heated up and put under pressure to create the metamorphic rock. Classic example - igneous = obsidian. Metamorphic = marble (marble is limestone that's been heated and squeezed a lot).
Rocks are classified by they way they are formed. There are three main classes of rocks: igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks.
There are three different kinds of rocks, depending on how they were formed. Igneous rocks formed when melted rock cooled and hardened. Sedimentary rocks formed in layers from bits of older rocks and parts of animals or plants. These collect in low areas or under water and harden into rocks. Metamorphic rocks formed when either sedimentary, igneous, or earlier formed metamorphic rocks were put under pressure and heat deep in the earth's crust.
Rocks can be formed by particles of pebbles, sand or shells creating sedimentary rocks. When molten rock cools and hardens it will form igneous rocks. When there is pressure and intense heat on rocks, they form metamorphic rocks.
