Geologists classify rocks by looking at their chemical and mineralogical composition then at the the size and shape of their component minerals then at any texture, pattern or grain that the rocks may display. They also classify them in relation to how they were formed.
pieces of rock
Look at them. There shape, size, color and feel! Dont worry you will figure it out....
intrusive and extrusive
It's important bcause u can classify rocks from luster and other properties.
color for instance real gold and fools gold is the same color but 2 different rocks
Geologists classify metamorphic rocks by the arrangements of the grains that make up the rocks.
by carol and size

they look through a microscope
Color and texture is one way to classify igneous rocks. Another way to do this is modal classification and normative classification.
yes,either felsic if light coloured or mafic if dark cloured.we classify rocks like that especially igneous rocks but COLOR IS NEVER USED TO IDENTIFY ANY ROCK.only classification.

That was how racism was born.
sedimentary,metormorphic , igneous .........
Scientists classify rocks based on their mineral composition, texture, and how they were formed. These classifications help geologists understand the history and properties of rocks. There are three main categories for classifying rocks: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.

streak,color,hardness,heaviness,
