If magma crystallizes before it reaches earths surface it will form a what igneous rock?
It will for an intrusive igneous rock. They usually take longer to cool and have more coarse grains.
Is sandstone igneous or sedimentary or metamorphic?
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock which is made up of sand grains which have been compressed to form a rock that has very weak bonds holding the grains together. The grains themselves can be igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic depending on which rock the grains were eroded from.
Which rocks has two different size grains of the same mineral?
Pegmatite is a type of igneous rock that can have two different grain sizes of the same mineral present. This is due to the slow cooling process of the magma, allowing for the growth of large crystals (phenocrysts) within a finer-grained matrix.
