Chapter 3 – Igneous Rocks, the Origin Chapter 3 – Igneous Rocks, the Origin and Evolution of Magmaand Evolution of Magma
Rocks are composed of an aggregate of one or more minerals.
One exception: obsidian (rock) is composed of volcanic glass with no orderly internal arrangement of atoms.
Three rock types.

Igneous RocksIgneous Rocks
Igneous rocks: rocks “born of fire”; all igneous rocks were once molten.
Intrusive igneous rocks cool and solidify deep inside earth.
Form from solidified magma.
Extrusive igneous rocks cool and solidify on earth’s surface.
Form from solidified lava.

Sedimentary RocksSedimentary Rocks
Sedimentary rocks are composed of sediment.
Sediment can be either clastic (pieces) or chemical.
Clastic sediment is pieces of pre- existing rock like gravel, sand, silt and clay.
Chemical sediment is chemicals dissolved in water.

Metamorphic RocksMetamorphic Rocks
Metamorphic rocks: Changed by heat and pressure. Change is accomplished without melting.

Rock CycleRock Cycle
One of the three rock types can become any other rock type through various geologic processes. This is known as the rock cycle.

Igneous RocksIgneous Rocks
90% of all crustal rocks. Most covered by sedimentary rocks. Hard to see.
Magma: molten rock underground.Cools slowly. Large crystals. 1 MY cooling historyPlutonic: Pluto-god of underworld.
Lava: molten rock on earth’s surface.Cools quickly.Small or no crystals. Hours-weeks cooling.Volcanic: Vulcan-god of fire

Bowen’s Reaction Series
Could you create every igneous rock by melting the upper mantle?
assumption - chemistry of the magma is the same as the upper mantle
BRS - yes, order in which minerals crystallize
fractional crystallization
crystal separationfilter pressingcrystal settling
crystal flotation

What if the Magma Stays Underground?
magmatic stoping - moving through the solid rock (country rock)wedgingbreaking (xenolith)melting
plutonsbatholith - larger than 100 km2
most batholiths contain multiple intrusionsstock - smaller 10km2 or lessdike – discordant intrusionsill – concordant intrusion
