MELTING ROCKS AND CRYSTALLIZING MAGMARock magma magma rock
When rocks melt, bonds broken.
Crystalline solid no longer exists.
MELTING ROCKS AND CRYSTALLIZING MAGMARock magma magma rock
•Hot liquid contains still solid fragments
•Minerals melt at different temperatures
•Melting causes changes in magma composition
MELTING ROCKS AND CRYSTALLIZING MAGMARock magma magma rock
•Cooling of hot liquid allows crystallization of minerals
•Bonds are re-established
•Crystalline structure grows until edges touch adjacent crystals
•Minerals crystallize at different temperatures
