Down
  1. 1. a dark green to black intrusive igneous rock composed of dark silicate minerals
  2. 2. an abundant, coarse grained igneous rock, composed of about 10 to 20 percent quartz and 50 percent potassium feldspar
  3. 4. light colored, glassy vesicular rock commonly having a granitic composition
  4. 5. rock igneous rock that formed below earth's surface.
  5. 7. Rock
  6. 9. in an igneous rock with a porphyritic texture, a conspicuously large crystal embedded in a matrix of finer grained crystals called the groundmass
  7. 10. texture term applied to igneous rocks that contain small cavities called vesicles, which are formed when gases escape from lava
  8. 11. fine grained igneous rock of magic composition
  9. 12. gray, fine grained igneous rock, primarily of volcanic origin and commonly exhibiting a porphyritic texture
  10. 14. composition compositional group of igneous rocks indicating that the rock contains substantial dark silicate minerals and calcium-rich plagioclase feldspar
  11. 18. (intermediate) composition compositional group of igneous rocks that contains at least 25 percent dark silicate minerals
  12. 19. grained texture an igneous rock texture in which the crystals are roughly equal in size and large enough that individual minerals can be identified with the unaided eye
  13. 20. magma that reaches earths surface
  14. 23. texture term used to describe the texture of certain igneous rocks, such as obsidian, that contains no crystals
