Across
  1. 3. a fissile rock that is formed by the consolidation of clay
  2. 4. rocks occur where rocks are altered by high temperatures
  3. 6. weight of the overlying material
  4. 7. rock that contains significant amounts of organic carbon
  5. 9. mass of igneous rock that has solidified below the surface of the earth.
  6. 16. lava at the surface
  7. 18. rocks composed mostly of minerals produced by evaporation of saline solutions
  8. 19. The process that converts sediments into solid rock by compaction or cementation.
  9. 20. do not have a platy or sheet-like structure
  10. 22. metamorphic rock that forms from other rocks
  11. 24. temperature to melt rocks
  12. 27. rock that is dark in color
  13. 28. the laying down of sediment carried by wind, water, or ice
  14. 30. striped and layered formation
  15. 32. big rocks in a rock close together
Down
  1. 1. a rock formed from angular gravel and boulder-sized clasts cemented together in a matrix.
  2. 2. a type of sedimentary rock that is composed of large, rounded rock fragments contained within a smaller, fine-grained matrix of sediments
  3. 5. the processes by which the sediment is moved along
  4. 8. rocks form when rocks are heated to high temperatures
  5. 10. rocks that form outside the earth
  6. 11. the movement of fragments of rock by the erosion processes
  7. 12. size the diameter of individual grains of sediment, or the lithified particles in clastic rocks
  8. 13. composed of consolidated sediments
  9. 14. influence magma's behavior
  10. 15. what is CaCo3 stand for?
  11. 17. rock that is light in color
  12. 21. rock the begins as a sediment then cemented together
  13. 23. Melted rock from a volcano
  14. 25. The flow of a liquid
  15. 26. the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on the surface of the Earth
  16. 29. has been subjected to higher temperatures and pressures than schist
  17. 31. rocks that are formed in the earth
