Igneous Rocks
Crystallization
This chart represents the order in which different minerals crystallize from a cooling magma or lava to form igneous
rocks. Both mineral names and the rocks they form are shown. Use the chart to answer the questions.
Crystallization
First to
crystallize
Iron-magnesium
silicate minerals
Feldspar minerals
Olivine
Plagioclase
(calcium feldspar)
Decreasing temperature
Pyroxene
Plagioclase
(sodium feldspar)
Amphibole
Biotite
Orthoclase
(potassium feldspar)
Last to
crystallize
Rock
names
Gabbro,
basalt
Diorite,
andesite
Granite,
rhyolite
Quartz
1. Which minerals are the first to crystallize from cooling magma?
2. What kind of rocks are formed by these minerals?
3. Which mineral crystallizes at the lowest temperature?
4. Which mineral, pyroxene or orthoclase, crystallizes from magma first?
5. Which feldspar mineral is found in granite?
6. What minerals form the rocks diorite and andesite?
7. Minerals higher in silica content crystallize from magma at lower temperatures. Which magma,
basaltic or granitic, is higher in silica content?
8. Magma low in silica content flows more easily. Which kind of lava, basaltic lava or granitic, flows
faster?
