When doing these Input - Output notes i learnt about rocks and minerals. Im going to share with you a few cool things that I learnt. First you need to know how rocks are made, rocks are made of 2 minerals, and a special cycle called the Rock Cycle. The Rock Cycle is a model that describes the formation breakdown and reformation of a rock. There are also 3 different types of rocks, such as Igneous, sedimentary and metaphoric. Igneous rocks that are made of heat or fire. Sedimentary rocks are rocks that usually are layers of sand or mud at the bottom of oceans that have turned to rock. Lastly Metaphoric rocks are rocks that originally were sedimentary or igneous. To identify a mineral you can observe the color, luster, streak, cleavage, hardness or the specific gravity. Minerals are ofter made of molten rock that cools.
