Sedimentary : This rock forms when sediment from older rocks, that form from solution get pressed and cemented together.
Igneous : This rock forms when magma cools and hardens.
Streak : This is the color of a mineral when it is crushed to a powder
Cleavage : When a rock is broken and has clean edges and a smooth surface.
Rock : A combination of 1 or more mineral or organic matter that can be made of noncrystalline material : A solid inorganic substance of natural occurrence
RockCycle : A cycle undergone by rocks.
Luster : A glare on rocks that reflects.
Hardness : How _____ the mineral is can be tested on the Mons Scale.
Intrusive : Mineral is formed below the earth's surface.
Extrusive : Mineral is formed above the earth's surface.
Foliated : Occurs when pressure causes the mineral grains in a rock to form parallel bands.
Nonfoliated : Do not have minerals grains that are a lined in planes or bands.
Clastic : Buried compacted and cemented together by calcite or quartz.
Monsscale : Scale used for measuring how hard a mineral is.
Metamorphic : A rock formed when pressure, temperature, or chemical process change existing rock.
