The Rock Cycle SEDIMENTARY, METAMORPHIC AND IGNEOUS ROCKS Chapter 6 1. Rock: A naturally occurring solid mixture of one or more minerals and organic matter. 2. Rock Cycle: Rock forms, changes from one type of rock to another and forms again by processes in and on the Earth. 3. 3 Types: Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic  D. Sedimentary Rock 1. Sedimentary Rock is formed by: Weathering and Erosion of rocks into smaller pieces or sediment, deposition, compaction and cementation. 2. Sediment: a. Rock and mineral fragments b. Sedimentation- the deposition or accumulation of sediment. 3. Any rock (igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic) exposed at the Earth's surface can become a sedimentary rock. 4. Fossils are found in sedimentary rock.  F. Weathering and Erosion 1. Weathering: Breakdown of rock by 2. Erosion: water, constant Movement of heating and cooling or other natural sediment by causes, to form wind and water sediment.  G. Deposition 1. Sediment is moved, accumulates, and forms layers.  H. Compaction and Cementation Over time these deposited grains and pieces of rock are compacted and cemented together in layers. The compaction and cementation occurs when sediment is squeezed by the weight of the sediment layers above it. Each layer may be different from the next layer depending on the type of sediment that is deposited. 1. Compaction: The squeezing together of rock layers. 2. Cementation: sediment becomes bound together and forms rock I. Sedimentary Rocks examples: Breccia Shale Sandstone  The remains of Sedimentary Rock plants and animals become trapped in the layers and over long periods of time become fossils..  J. Igneous Rock 1. Igneous rocks (from the Greek word for fire) form from hot molten rock (magma). 2. Magma: hot molten rock  K. Extrusive Igneous 1. Rock produced when magma exits and cools outside of, or very near the Earth's surface 2. form at erupting volcanoes. 3. EX: pumice and obsidian Pumice-cooled Obsidian-cooled quickly slowly Black Sand Beach: Hawaii One of nature's rarest wonders stretches across the island of Hawaii's shores — the black- sand beach of Punalu'u. This magnificent beach formed when lava from two of the world's most active volcanoes, Mauna Loa and Kilauea, spilled into the ocean and quickly cooled, breaking into minuscule pieces that now comprise the "sand."  L. Intrusive Igneous Rock 1. forms when magma is trapped deep inside the Earth, cools very slowly over many thousands or millions of years until it solidifies. 2. Intrusive igneous rock can be pushed to the surface by plate movement. 3. Uplift pushes rocks to the surface. 3. Example: Granite- cools inside the Earth. M. Metamorphic Rock 1. Rocks that have changed into another kind of rock, once igneous or sedimentary rocks. 2. Heat and pressure squeeze the sedimentary or igneous rock and change it into metamorphic rock. 3. EX: slate and marble  N. Metamorphic Rock O. Metamorphic rock 1. Limestone, a sedimentary 1. Shale, a sedimentary rock, is rock, is changed by heat and changed by heat and pressure pressure into marble. Marble is into slate used to make statues and countertops. S: shale S: Limestone M: slate M: Marble  THE ROCK CYCLE The Rock Cycle  http://www.learner.org/interactives/ rockcycle/diagram.html 1. Name the 3 types of rock. 2. This process causes rock to break down into smaller pieces called sediment.____________________________ 3. This action is the movement of sediments to rivers and lakes._______________ 4. This is the accumulation of sediment in lakes, oceans or on floodplains_______. 5. Sedimentary rock is formed by _________________and ______________. 6. Two types of igneous rock______________ and ______________. 7. What causes sedimentary and igneous rock to become metamorphic rock? __________and___________ 8. Intrusive igneous rock forms_________________________ 8. Extrusive igneous rock forms_____________________________ 10. Can any rock become a sedimentary rock? __________________ 11. HOW?____________________________________________ 12.
