Where would you find igneous rocks with larger crystal at the surface or below the surface?

Igneous rocks with larger crystals are typically found below the surface where there is slower cooling, allowing time for crystals to grow. These rocks are known as intrusive igneous rocks and are usually found in the Earth's crust, in regions of volcanic activity or in mountain ranges.


What type of rocks would you find near a volcano and why?

Near a volcano, you would typically find igneous rocks such as basalt, andesite, and rhyolite. This is because volcanoes are formed by the solidification of magma from the Earth's mantle, which cools and solidifies to form igneous rocks. These rocks are often rich in minerals like silica and magnesium.


Where can you find crystal?

You can find crystals, meaning rocks and minerals in their natural crystal form (they grow that way), almost anywhere in nature - both on the ground and under the ground. Most crystals are mined, since many have formed millions of years ago. Check out rockhounding sites if you want to mine your own, but the easiest way to find crystals is to go to a rock shop or metaphysical store in your area. You can find them on line, but it is not the same as actually touching them in order to get to know what you are looking at. See also the link below.


Can crystals be found inside a rock?

Yes. Rocks containing crystals are called geodes. (Refer to wikipedia). Also, many rocks, particularly igneous rocks and some sedimentary rocks are crystaline in nature. Granite, for example, is typically made up of quartz, mica and feldspar.


What type of rocks would you expect to find around a volcano crater?

You would find extrusive igneous rocks. Beyond that it depends on the volcano.

Where would you expect to find an igneous rock with small crystals?

You would expect to find an igneous rock with small crystals near the Earth's surface where the rock cools relatively quickly, such as in volcanic eruptions or magma intrusions that do not have much time to grow large crystals. These rocks are known as volcanic or extrusive igneous rocks.


Where in nature can you find crystals of salt?

At sea shores in a humid climate growing on large flat rocks.

Suppose you find a mineral crystal that is as tall as you arewhat kinds of environmental factors would cause such a crystalto form?

The presence of hot fluids causes the mineral crystals to become extremely large.
