ANSWER: rock cycle
Is opal an intrusive or extrusive mineral?
Opal is not considered a rock but actually a mineraloid gel. It is deposited at relatively low temperatures. One of the characteristics if igneous rocks, sometimes called fire rocks, is that they are formed at high temperatures. Whether an igneous rock forms below ground, or on or near the surface, it's all about heat forming the rock. Opal cannot take its form under that kind of heat.
What is an non example for rock cycle?
An example that is not part of the rock cycle would be a volcanic eruption, where molten rock (magma) is expelled from Earth's interior onto its surface. This event is a singular occurrence and does not illustrate the continuous processes of rock formation, transformation, and recycling that make up the rock cycle.
Are there different kinds of opal?
The types of Opal that i am familiar with are White Opal, Fire Opal, Boulder Opal, Black Opal, Crystal Opal, Light Opal, Doublet Opal, Triplet Opal, Common Opal, Synthetic Opal, and Immitation Opal.

Fire opal is not an igneous rock; it is a mineraloid form of opal, primarily composed of silica. While it can form in volcanic environments, it is classified as a gemstone rather than a rock type. Fire opal is known for its vibrant colors and play of color, which result from its unique internal structure rather than crystallization like igneous rocks.

What is the rock cycle including descriptions of how one type of rock can change into another type?

What does the rock cycle and water cycle have in common?
The rock cycle and water cycle both are natural.
The way the pieces of materials in the rock fit together define its?
texture. Texture describes the relative size, shape, and arrangement of mineral grains or crystals within a rock, which can range from fine and smooth to coarse and rough. This characteristic is helpful in identifying and classifying different types of rocks.
WHAT is the change of one type of rock into a new type of rock?
ANSWER: rock cycle
