E103 Introduction to
Rocks
This is an outstanding rock identification chart. The
introduction explains that each type of rock is the
result of a specific mixture of minerals subjected to a
clearly defined geological process. It show and
describes the most common rock-forming minerals and
variations that occur with rock types.
The bulk of the poster is divided into three sections, one
for each rock type: igneous, sedimentary and
metamorphic. An illustration shows how they are made and
a photograph shows a natural formation. A dozen other
photographs show representative specimens. Each is a
companied by an informative caption citing identifying
characteristics and common variations.
A bonus section shows and explains some of the more specialized and
popular rock forms, such as geodes, concretions, agates
and meteorites. This is a great poster for earth science
classes and is especially useful to collectors.
