Igneous rocks igneous rocks are formed by crystallization from a liquid, or magma

Igneous rocks Igneous rocks form when molten rock cools and solidifies (crystallizes). Molten rock trapped underground is called magma. Molten rock erupted at Earth's surface is referred to as lava

Igneous Rock Textures Igneous Rock Textures

Igneous rocks types Igneous Rocks are formed by crystallization from a liquid, or magma. They include two types, Volcanic or extrusive igneous rocks form when the magma cools and crystallizes on the surface of the Earth, Intrusive or plutonic igneous rocks

Mineralogy notes

Minerals Minerals are an integral part of the structure of the Earth. Explore what minerals are, and how they are made, how they are identified and what they are used for. Look at the specific chemical and physical properties of minerals, as well as important localities in Australia where minerals are found

Mineral web an interactive web site for displaying 3-D crystal structures of minerals, you need the CHIME plug-in
