Across
- 6. A body of molten rock found at depth
- 7. The point on the earth's surface directly above the focus of an earthquake
- 8. is a naturally occurring mixture of one or more minerals
- 9. A plate boundary where two plates move toward each other.
- 11. a concentration of heat in the mantle capable of producing magma, which rises to Earth's surface
- 13. Loose particles created by the weathering and erosion of rocks
- 14. Magma that reaches the earth's surface
- 16. The process by which plate tectonics produces new oceanic lithosphere at the ocean ridges
- 19. Rock formed by the alteration of preexisting solid rock deep within the earth

- 23. A natural resource that can be replaced at the same or below the rate at which the resource is consumed
Down
- 1. A liquids resistance to flowing or the thickness of a liquid
- 2. A natural source that is consumed faster or above the rate at which it is replaced
- 3. The outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle
- 4. the A fracture in the earth along which movement has occurred
- 5. An inorganic solid that has a crystal structure and chemical composition
- 6. The process in which rock is physically broken into smaller pieces; no change in rock composition.
- 9. The process in which rock is broken down by chemical reactions; changes the rock's molecular composition
