·Metamorphic Rocks Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have undergone a change from their original form due to changes in temperature pressure or chemical alteration The classification of metamorphic rocks is based on the minerals that are present and the temperature and pressure at which these minerals form

·Go to the Metamorphic Rock Identification website that is in the lesson 2 Identify the properties and the names of the 8 unknown metamorphic rocks 3 Complete the chart in the Data section of the lab worksheet using the information from the website the Foliated and Non Foliated Metamorphic Rock Chart and the images provided in lesson 4
·Igneous rocks are some of the most interesting rocks found in nature mostly because of the spectacular way in which they are formed All igneous rocks are created from the cooling of magma or lava but there are almost limitless varieties based on the minerals present in the source magma and the temperature and pressure conditions when it cooled
