Igneous rock (หินอัคนี)
Sedimentary rock (หินตะกอน)
Metamorphic rock (หินแปร)
• 95% of upper 10 miles (16 km) of Earth’s crust is igneous rock
• 5% is thin, widespread sedimentary and metamorphic layers
• 80% of Earth’s land surface covered by sedimentary rocks
Igneous rock
►
Igneous (Latin) = fire
►
Igneous rocks are formed by cooling and
solidification of magma
►
Igneous rock Æ plutonic rock
Æ volcanic rock
Æ pyroclastic rock

Sedimentary rock
►
Sedimentum (Latin) = settling
►
Sediment:
weathering
products
of
previously existing rocks.
ƒ Chemical weathering Æ chemical sedimentary rocks
ƒ Mechanical weathering Æ clastic sedimentary rocks
►
Sedimentary
rocks
are
consolidation of sediment
formed
by
Metamorphic rock
► Metamophic rock
ƒ Meta (Greek) = change
ƒ Morphe (Greek) = form
► Derived from preexisting rocks (igneoussedimentary
or
metamorphic
rocks)
by
mineralogical, textural and structural changes
► Changes are resulted from temperature-pressure
or both
Regional metamorphism
► Contact metamorphism
