| igneous | Basalt is a(n) __________ rock. |
| igneous | Pumice is a(n) __________ rock. |
| igneous | Rhyolite is a(n) __________ rock. |
| coral | The piece of __________ from the reef is left to the side like a loner n00b. |
| sedimentary | Conglomerate is a(n) __________ rock. |
| sedimentary | Shale is a(n) __________ rock. |
| sedimentary | Sandstone is a(n) __________ rock. |
| sedimentary | Limestone is a(n) __________ rock. |
| trilobite | There is a(n) __________ in one of the pieces of limestone that Mrs. Powers has, which is a essentially a fossil. |
| sedimentary | Tufa is a(n) __________ rock. |
| metamorphic | Gneiss is a(n) __________ rock. |
| metamorphic | Marble is a(n) __________ rock. |
| metamorphic | Quartzite is a(n) __________ rock. |
| metamorphic | Slate is a(n) __________ rock. |
| obsidian | __________ is a black rock with a glassy texture. The one Mrs. Powers has is considerably larger than all the other rocks. |
| granite | __________ is the only intrusive rock. If it's intrusive or extrusive, it's most definitely igneous. |
| granite | __________ is the small, white rock with black lumps (crystals) embedded in it. This rock is igneous. |
| basalt | __________ is a nondescript black igneous rock. The one Mrs. Powers has is the smaller igneous rock, with tiny holes poked in it. |
| pumice | __________ is an easily identifiable igneous rock because the one Mrs. Powers has is really big, really gray, has a lot of holes, and is extremely light. |
| rhyolite | __________ is a small igneous rock. The one Mrs. Powers has is lightly pink-ish and has holes within it. |
| conglomerate | __________ is the really big sedimentary rock with a lot of bumps on it (which are mineral crystals). Looks like a bigger and lighter version of granite. |
| shale | __________ has a metamorphic counterpart and is a dull black. It is distinguishable from its counterpart because it does not have layers. |
| sandstone | __________ is easily identifiable by it's brownish-tan color. If felt, it is crumbly and rough. |
| limestone | __________ is the one I kind of forgot, just look at the one with the fossil inside of it because it is the same rock and try to find a similar one! |
| tufa | __________ is a dull red-magenta-pink sedimentary rock. Don't be tricked by it's various holes all over the place, it's actually sedimentary. |
| gneiss | __________ is a metamorphic rock that is white and striped black. |
| marble | __________ is a purely white metamorphic rock with little bumps upon it. |
| quartzite | __________ is a really rough and lightly tan marble-version metamorphic rock. |
| slate | __________ is the small, dull black metamorphic rock. To distinguish it from its sedimentary counterpart, if you look it at the side, you will spot layers (separated by white strokes). |
