No. Magma and lava are molten rock. When the cool they form igneous rock.

What is the most important information on sedimentary rocks?

Probably that they are sedimentary. =] They are made of sediments, and, unlike igneous and metamorphic rocks, are so far unaffected by magma/lava.


Why are there no fossils in a intrusion?

If you mean an intrusion via magma/lava, then fossils would not exist due to the fact that most fossils are found in SEDIMENTARY rock, not IGNEOUS (magma/lava rocks).


What is the difference between igneous and sedimentary rocks?

Igneous rock is formed from the solidification of magma or lava. Sedimentary rock is formed from the lithification of sediments, generally.


What are kind of rock?

The three kinds of rocks by their method of formation are IGNEOUS rocks, SEDIMENTARY rocks and METAMORPHIC rocks. Igneous rocks cool from magma or lava. Sedimentary rocks form by the deposition of particulates and silt. Metamorphic rocks form from rocks (usually sedimentary) that are compressed and heated underground.


What are sedimentary rocks made of lava or magma?

Neither. Sedimentary rocks are made out of sand, silt, clay, etc. Over time these can accumulate, and under sufficient pressure they are compressed into rock.


Name the 3 kinds of rocks?

The three main types of rocks are igneous, formed from cooling lava or magma; sedimentary, formed from compressed layers of sediment; and metamorphic, formed from existing rocks that undergo high heat and pressure.


What are the kinds of rocks?

All rocks are solid. Igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary.


Is vindhyan system made of igneous rocks?

No, the Vindhyan system is primarily made up of sedimentary rocks. Igneous rocks, which are formed from the cooling of molten lava or magma, are not a dominant component of the Vindhyan system.


Are rocks formed by lava or magma?

Magma


What type of rocks can melt into lava or magma?

Igneous rocks, specifically those that are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma, can melt back into lava or magma when subjected to high temperatures and pressure. Additionally, sedimentary rocks can also melt into magma if they are buried deep within the Earth's crust and exposed to extreme heat. Metamorphic rocks, formed under heat and pressure from existing rocks, can similarly melt into magma under sufficient conditions.


Is Sedimentary rocks are derived from igneous rocks?

Sedimentary rocks are not directly derived from igneous rocks. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and cementation of sediments, such as sand, mud, and organic material, through processes like erosion, deposition, and lithification. Igneous rocks, on the other hand, are formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
