  1. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten magma.

  3. Metamorphic rocks are formed from the alteration of existing rocks due to heat and pressure.
  4. Granite is a common type of igneous rock that forms from the slow cooling of magma deep within the Earth.
  5. Limestone is a sedimentary rock that is often composed of the remains of marine organisms.
  6. Marble is a metamorphic rock that forms from the recrystallization of limestone under high pressure and temperature.
  7. Basalt is another type of igneous rock that forms from the rapid cooling of lava on the Earth’s surface.
  8. Sandstone is a sedimentary rock that is made up of sand-sized grains cemented together.
  9. Slate is a metamorphic rock that forms from the alteration of shale or mudstone through low-grade metamorphism.
  10. Gneiss is a metamorphic rock that exhibits banded layers of different minerals due to intense pressure and heat.
