What else can I help you with?
What are tectonic made of Magma and solid mantle crust and magma crust and solid mantle solid rock and molten rock?
Igneous rock
What does it cause when magma escapes from the mantle to the surface of the earth?
Igneous rock.
What are rocks that come from the mantle?
Rocks that come from the mantle are called mantle rocks. These rocks are typically formed deep within the Earth's mantle and can include peridotite, dunite, and eclogite. Mantle rocks are brought to the surface through processes like volcanic eruptions or tectonic movements.
How is molten rock formed and what type of rock does it create when it hardens?
Molten rock is formed through the melting of rocks in the Earth's mantle or crust due to high temperatures and pressure. When the molten rock cools and solidifies, it creates igneous rock, which can be further classified into types such as basalt, granite, and obsidian, depending on the cooling process and composition of the molten rock.
The molten rock that is found in the upper mantle are?
called magma. Magma is formed when rock in the upper mantle melts due to high temperature and pressure. This molten rock can then rise to the surface and solidify to form igneous rocks.
WHAT ARE Mantle rocks classified as?
Mantle rock is classified as ultramafic igneous rock.
What rocks are classified as?
Mantle rock is classified as ultramafic igneous rock.
What are tectonic made of Magma and solid mantle crust and magma crust and solid mantle solid rock and molten rock?
Igneous rock
How could a metamorphic rock go to a igneous rock?
If a metamorphic rock were to reach the mantle and melt, it would become magma. If that magma were then to recrystallize it would be an igneous rock.
What does it cause when magma escapes from the mantle to the surface of the earth?
Igneous rock.
What igneous rock contains mostly pyroxene and olivine?
Ultramafic igneous rocks are comprised mostly of olivine and pyroxene. Examples include peridotite (pegmatic and porphyritic) and komatite.
What are rocks that come from the mantle called?
Igneous rock.
Where would you be most likely to find granite in earths mantle or earths continents?
you will find it in earths mantle because it is a kind of an igneous rock
What process changes a sedimentary rock into an igneous rock?
Sedimentary rock can change intometamorphic rock or into igneous rock. Metamorphic rockcan change into igneous or sedimentary rock. Igneous rock forms when magma cools and makes crystals. Magma is a hot liquid made of melted minerals.
How are metamorphic sedimentary and igneous rocks continues?
Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling of magma that rises up from the mantle. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the compaction of small grains of weathered igneaous or metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks are formed from the action of heat and/or pressure on igneous or sedimentary rocks. Finally, subduction process at certain plate boundaries return all three rock types to the mantle. So there exists a contiuous cycle between the three types of rock; starting with igneous rocks, perhaps becoming sedimentary rock or metamorphic rock or both, then returning to the mantle.
