- Igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks
Igneous rock composed of:
1. In igneous rocks, igneous rocks that occur in the Earth's crust. For example, granite, diorite, batolith, laolit, gabbro, seynit.
2. Igneous outside, the igneous rock that occurs outside the earth's crust, such as andesite, obsidian, pumice.
3. Igneous rock excavation, the rock that occurs in volcanic excavation or alley, for example posfir granite and diorite posfir.
sedimentary rocks
Various kinds:
1. based personnel carrier
- Glacial sediments, energy carrier melt ice or snow. For example morena.
- Sediment Aeris, the carrier is wind power. Examples los soil, tuff soil, sandy soil.
- Sediment Aquatis, energy carrier is water. For example breccia, conglomerate, sandstone.
2. based on place of deposition
- Limnis sediments deposited at the bottom of a lake or swamp.
- Sediment teristis, deposited on land.
- Marine sediments deposited on the ocean floor.
- Fluvial sediments, deposited in the river.
3. based deposition processes
- Sediment klastis (mechanical), mechanical drift deposition process.
- Sediment chemistry, chemical process influenced deposition process.
metamorphic rocks
There are three kinds of metamorphic rocks, which are:
1. contact metamorphism (thermocouple), occurs because of the high temperatures derived from magma. Examples of marble limestone and anthracite from coal.
2. pneumatolis metamorphosis, occurs because of the high pressure of a thick sediment on it. Examples of sand sandstone.
3. Metamorphic dynamo (sintektonik), occurs because of the effect of temperature and pressure. For example, stone ashtray.
