Foliated rocks form bands of minerals that are lined up due to being subjected to heat and pressure during metamorphism, while nonfoliated rocks do not have aligned bands as they were not exposed to the same conditions. Phyllite is an example of a foliated rock where microscopic bands are lined up, and marble is an example of a nonfoliated rock with unaligned mineral crystals that was originally limestone.

Metamorphic rocks
This document discusses metamorphism and metamorphic rocks. It defines metamorphism as the change in rocks due to increases in temperature and pressure. There are different types of metamorphism including contact, regional, and cataclastic metamorphism. Regional metamorphism occurs over large areas and results in strongly foliated rocks like slates, schists and gneisses. The document describes the different grades of metamorphism from low to high and the typical minerals formed. It also discusses structures in metamorphic rocks like foliation and banding. In conclusion, different metamorphic rocks like slates, schists and gneisses have various economic uses as building materials.
Forms of igneous rocks
There are two main forms of igneous rocks:
1) Extrusive rocks form from lava erupted at the Earth's surface and cool rapidly. They include lava flows, pyroclastic deposits like volcanic ash and tuff.
2) Intrusive rocks form from magma that cools below the surface. They can be concordant, forming sheets and domes parallel to layers, like sills and laccoliths, or discordant and cutting across layers, like dikes, batholiths, and volcanic necks.
Sedimentary Rocks
This document provides an overview of sedimentary rocks, including their classification and common types. It discusses how sedimentary rocks form from sediments produced by weathering and are later cemented. The document classifies sedimentary rocks into detrital rocks (formed from rock fragments), chemically formed rocks like limestone, and residual deposits like laterite and soils. Detrital rocks like sandstone and shale are the most abundant sedimentary rocks, comprising around 95% of sedimentary layers and 4% and 0.75% of the Earth's crust, respectively.
Classification of Metamorphic Rocks
Metamorphic rocks form from older igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic rocks through heat and pressure, such as from earthquakes and volcanism. This heat and pressure can flatten mineral grains without melting the rock or change one rock type into another metamorphic type over time. Metamorphic rocks are classified based on whether their mineral grains form layers (foliated) or not (nonfoliated), and examples include slate, gneiss, and marble. These rocks have various uses including floors, buildings, statues, and tombstones.

Stress in rock
Stress is the internal resistance of a material against an applied load or force. There are different types of stress that rocks can experience, including lithostatic stress from the weight of overlying rocks, and differential stress from tectonic forces like tension, compression, and shearing. Rocks deform in response to stress in different ways depending on factors like pressure, temperature, and composition. At low stresses rocks deform elastically and return to their original shape when unloaded. At higher stresses near the surface, rocks deform brittlely and fracture. Deeper underground, higher temperatures cause ductile deformation where rocks flow plastically. The stress-strain behavior of rocks is important for understanding their mechanical properties and failure under stress
Foliation and lineation
A fabric describes the spatial and geometric relationships that make up a rock at the microscopic to centimeter scale. It includes planar structures like bedding and cleavage, as well as the preferred orientation of minerals. There are different types of fabric including linear fabric formed by elongate minerals, planar fabric formed by platy minerals, and random fabric with no orientation. Foliation specifically refers to any planar arrangement of minerals or structures in a rock. Foliation can be primary, forming during rock formation, or secondary, resulting from deformation. Common types of secondary foliation include cleavage, schistosity, and mylonitic foliation. Lineation describes a preferred linear orientation of features in a rock, often related to deformation processes like intersection of planar

Metamorphic Rocks/EPCC/LM6
Metamorphism occurs when rocks undergo changes in temperature and pressure due to burial or intrusion. There are several types of metamorphism that produce different textures and minerals depending on factors like stress, fluids, time, and temperature/pressure conditions. Regional metamorphism results from tectonic forces building mountains and produces foliated rocks through recrystallization and deformation. Plate tectonics drives metamorphism through processes like subduction and burial that subject rocks to high pressures and temperatures.

Igneous rocks
This document discusses different types of igneous rocks. It begins by explaining that igneous rocks form from lava or magma and can be extrusive or intrusive. Extrusive rocks form from lava at the surface, while intrusive rocks form from magma underground. Intrusive rocks can take various forms depending on factors like the viscosity of the magma and the structure of the surrounding rock layers. Common intrusive rock forms include dykes, sills, laccoliths, lopoliths, and batholiths. Extrusive rocks include lava flows. The document provides detailed descriptions of these different igneous rock types and their characteristic features.
Primary structures geology
This document defines and describes various primary structures found in sedimentary and igneous rocks. Primary structures form during or shortly after the formation of a rock and include features like bedding, cross-bedding, graded bedding, ripple marks, mud cracks, and unconformities in sedimentary rocks. In igneous rocks, primary structures include intrusive features like dykes, sills, batholiths, and extrusive features like pillow lava, ropy lava, and pyroclastic flows. Secondary structures form after the rocks solidify due to tectonic forces and include folds, faults, joints, and lineations.
Unconformities
Unconformities represent gaps or missing time in the geologic record due to non-deposition or erosion. There are several types of unconformities that can form, such as angular unconformities, disconformities, and nonconformities. Unconformities are important as they provide information about periods of geologic activity, like folding or erosion of the land, and help place boundaries on geologic timescales. They can be identified in the field based on features like a lack of parallel bedding above and below the contact, presence of erosion surfaces, and fossils of widely different ages across the boundary.
Strain markers+
Strain markers are objects in deformed rocks that can be used to measure strain. Good strain markers include reduction spots, pebbles, fossils, fold sets, and lineations. Spherical markers originally circular in cross-section become elliptical due to homogeneous deformation, with the ratio of major to minor axes indicating strain. Fossils with lines of symmetry like trilobites and brachiopods can indicate the principal strain directions. Fold sets allow comparing initial and final layered sequences to analyze strain. Schistosity and lineations in metamorphic rocks can also act as strain markers.
Migmatites
Migmatites are mixed rocks formed near large granite intrusions when magma is injected into neighboring metamorphic rock. They contain a paleosome of unaltered parent rock and a neosome of newly formed rock that may be leucocratic or melanocratic. Migmatites exhibit a variety of structures depending on the degree of melting, including dietzonic, schollen, phlebitic, stromatic, and folded structures. They are associated with high-temperature metamorphic facies and often found in close association with other high-grade metamorphic rocks. Common uses include cement manufacture, road aggregate, and building stone.
Unconformity
The document discusses different types of unconformities:
- Angular unconformity occurs when rock layers above and below are not parallel due to erosion and deposition over a long period of time with changes in bedding orientation.
- Nonconformity separates older crystalline rocks from overlying younger sedimentary or volcanic rocks, representing a long period of erosion.
- Disconformity has parallel bedding above and below, separated by erosion over some time.
- Local unconformity is similar to a disconformity but represents only a short period of non-deposition over a small area.
Metamorphic rocks
Metamorphic rocks are formed from existing rocks through heat and pressure within the Earth. This process, called metamorphism, changes the hardness, texture, and layering of the original rocks. There are different types of metamorphism that result in various metamorphic rock formations. Metamorphic rocks exhibit features like foliation, lineation, and different textures depending on the grade of metamorphism experienced. Common metamorphic rocks include slate, phyllite, schist, gneiss, quartzite, and marble.
Metamorphic rocks-Definition, Formation, Classification
The document discusses metamorphism, which is the transformation of rocks due to changes in chemical and physical conditions. Metamorphic rocks form from the alteration of pre-existing igneous, sedimentary, or other metamorphic rocks (called protoliths) due to heat, pressure, and chemically active fluids. Metamorphism can be divided into contact metamorphism near magma intrusions and regional metamorphism caused by heat and pressure at depth over large areas. The degree and type of metamorphism determines the texture and mineral composition of the resulting rock.
Textures of igneous rocks
The document discusses the texture of igneous rocks. Texture refers to the size, shape, nature and arrangement of constituents in a rock. It is best studied through thin sections under a microscope. There are three main factors for describing texture: degree of crystallization, crystal/grain size, and fabric. Crystal size can range from microscopic to visible by the naked eye. Fabric considers crystal shapes, sizes, and their mutual relationships, which can be equigranular, inequigranular, intergrowths, directive patterns, or intergranular. Texture provides insights into the cooling and crystallization history of magma.
Rock deformation
Rock deformation is the process by which rocks change shape due to stress and heat. Structural geology studies rock deformation, which can occur through folds, faults, or joints. Folds involve the bending of sedimentary or volcanic rocks into undulating waves, commonly seen as anticlines and synclines or domes and basins. Faults are fractures where the earth's crust is displaced, and include dip-slip, strike-slip, and tensional or compressional faults. Joints are fractures without displacement and include columnar and sheeting joints.
Geometric classification of folds
This document discusses the geometric classification of folds in geology. It defines what folds are and describes their key features like hinge lines, axial planes, limbs, and amplitudes. It then categorizes folds based on various criteria such as the sense of curvature (anticline, syncline), direction of younging (anticlinal, synclinal), symmetry (symmetrical, asymmetrical), nature of the hinge line (cylindrical, non-cylindrical), plunge, interlimb angle, thickness, orientation, and shape of the hinge. It provides examples of different fold types and discusses parasitic folds. The document serves as a comprehensive overview of how folds are classified geometrically in structural geology.
Metamorphism
This document discusses metamorphism and metamorphic rocks. It defines metamorphism as a change in shape of pre-existing rocks due to heat and pressure below the surface. It describes different types of metamorphism including contact, dynamic, and regional metamorphism. It also defines foliated and non-foliated metamorphic rocks, providing examples like slate, schist, and gneiss. The document aims to explain metamorphic concepts and rock types to students.
Sedimentary structure
This document discusses sedimentary structures, which are macroscopic features formed during sediment deposition. It classifies sedimentary structures based on their morphology and formation processes. The key types discussed are physical structures like bedding, cross-bedding, and ripple marks formed directly by sedimentation. Chemical structures like nodules and concretions are formed by precipitation. Biogenic structures such as stromatolites and trace fossils provide evidence of ancient life. Studying sedimentary structures can provide insight into depositional environments, paleocurrents, and stratigraphic relationships.

Igneous Rock Presentation
Pumice rock is the lightest and only rock that can float on water due to cooling very fast underground, which left it very light with many holes. It has a rough texture and is used to rub off dead skin. Granite is one of the most common rocks on Earth's surface, used for countertops and buildings. It cooled slowly, resulting in similarly sized crystals as marble. Basalt is very hard and forms from lava; it cooled quickly but with small crystals. Obsidian forms from volcanic glass and was historically used for tools since it is very sharp when fractured. Scoria is a volcanic rock that cooled partially underwater, leaving it with holes like pumice.
Igneous rock textures
This document discusses igneous rock textures. It explains that texture refers to the size, shape, and arrangement of mineral grains in a rock. Cooling rate controls igneous rock texture, with rapid cooling resulting in fine-grained textures and slow cooling producing coarse-grained rocks. Extrusive igneous rocks like lava have fine-grained textures due to rapid surface cooling, while intrusive plutonic rocks exhibit a variety of coarse-grained textures due to slower cooling underground. Examples of different igneous rock textures are described, including aphanitic, porphyritic, vesicular, glassy, phaneritic, and pegmatitic.
Igneous rocks
Igneous rocks are formed by the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. They are classified based on their composition and texture, ranging from glassy to coarse-grained. Intrusive igneous rocks form when magma cools slowly underground, resulting in large crystals, while extrusive rocks form above ground where lava cools rapidly, having small or no crystals. Common examples are granite as an intrusive rock and basalt as an extrusive rock.

Fraud
Nortel Networks Corp was involved in one of the largest accounting fraud scandals in Canadian history. In the early 2000s, Nortel was struggling financially but senior executives manipulated accounting reserves to falsely report profits, allowing them to receive large bonuses. The SEC and RCMP investigated and charged four former Nortel executives with fraud. Risk factors that allowed the fraud included incentives for executives to commit fraud to receive bonuses, opportunities to manipulate financial reports without detection, and an overly aggressive corporate culture tolerant of improper behavior. The fraud ultimately led to Nortel's bankruptcy and widespread losses for shareholders, employees and pension funds.

Folliculogenesis
Folliculogenesis is the maturation process of ovarian follicles that contain oocytes. It begins with primordial follicles at birth and progresses through primary, secondary, tertiary, and preovulatory stages over approximately 375 days. Key changes include recruitment of granulosa and theca cells, antrum formation, and growth in response to hormones like FSH and LH. By the time of ovulation, usually one follicle remains to release its oocyte while the remaining follicles die through atresia. The supply of follicles steadily declines with age until menopause due to DNA damage accumulation that impairs repair in oocytes.
Chapter 7 metamorphic rocks
This document summarizes key concepts from a chapter about metamorphism from the textbook Essentials of Geology. Metamorphism occurs when rocks undergo changes to their texture, mineralogy, and chemistry due to changes in temperature, pressure, and reaction with fluids. There are several processes involved, and metamorphic rocks exhibit distinctive properties based on the conditions they form under. Different metamorphic environments and intensities can produce different rock types. Index minerals are used to determine metamorphic grade.

Metamorphism and metamorphic rocks ppt
This document discusses metamorphism and metamorphic rocks. Metamorphic rocks form from existing igneous, sedimentary, or other metamorphic rocks through heat, pressure, and chemically reactive fluids. Metamorphism progresses incrementally and involves the growth of new minerals and deformation of existing ones. Metamorphism occurs in various settings like contact, regional, and burial metamorphism. Factors like heat, pressure, and fluids drive changes in mineralogy and texture. Metamorphic grade is indicated by index minerals and results in foliated and non-foliated rock types.

2) Deep foundations are used when top soils are weak and cannot support structural loads. Types include piles, piers, and caissons, which transmit loads to deeper stronger soil layers.
3) The design of an isolated spread footing involves calculating the area and dimensions of plain concrete based on allowable soil bearing capacity, then determining reinforced concrete dimensions, contact pressure, and checking critical sections for moment, shear, and punching.
Lichens
Lichens are a symbiotic association between a fungus and a photosynthetic symbiont such as an alga or cyanobacterium. This stable vegetative structure exhibits characteristics that neither organism has alone. Lichens are widely distributed and can withstand a variety of extreme environmental conditions. While resistant to natural extremes, lichens are extremely sensitive to air pollution like sulfur dioxide. The fungus provides structure and protection while obtaining organic compounds from the photosymbiont.

Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic Rocks
Igneous rocks form from the crystallization of magma. There are two main types - extrusive rocks that cool quickly at the surface, and intrusive rocks that cool slowly underground. Sedimentary rocks form through the lithification of sediments. Sediments are produced through weathering and erosion, transported, deposited, and cemented together over time under pressure. Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high temperatures and pressures, causing their mineral composition and structure to change without melting. The rock cycle shows how rocks continuously transform between igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic types through geological processes.

Metamorphic rock
Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have changed composition and structure due to heat and pressure. They can form from sedimentary, igneous, or other metamorphic rocks deep within the Earth's crust under the right conditions of heat and pressure over long periods of time. Metamorphic rocks may be foliated, with a banded or layered appearance due to the alignment of minerals, or non-foliated without clear banding.
Metamorphic rocks
Metamorphic rocks form from heat and pressure acting on sedimentary rocks within the Earth's crust. There are two main types of metamorphism - contact metamorphism, which occurs near igneous intrusions, and regional metamorphism, which occurs deep within the crust over large areas. Metamorphic rocks exhibit either a foliated or nonfoliated texture based on the alignment of mineral grains. Foliated rocks like slate and schist contain aligned flat minerals, while nonfoliated rocks like marble and quartzite have randomly oriented grains. Metamorphic rocks can change into other types through additional heat and pressure altering their mineral composition and structure over time.

minerals and rocks
Minerals are found in rocks and there are over 3000 known types of minerals. Minerals have different properties like color, hardness, streak, and luster that can be used to identify them. There are three main types of rocks: igneous rocks which form from cooling magma or lava, sedimentary rocks which form from compressed and cemented sediment, and metamorphic rocks which form from other rocks being subjected to heat and pressure below the earth's surface. Common rocks like granite, shale, and marble are used for construction materials, building monuments, and other purposes due to their unique properties.
Metamorphic rocks bs 1st year
Metamorphic rocks are formed from pre-existing igneous, sedimentary, or other metamorphic rocks through the process of metamorphism. Metamorphism involves changes to a rock's mineralogy, texture, and sometimes chemical composition due to changes in temperature, pressure, and exposure to chemically active fluids. The degree of metamorphism can range from slight changes resulting in low-grade metamorphic rocks like slate to more substantial changes producing high-grade metamorphic rocks. Common agents driving metamorphism include heat, pressure, and chemically active fluids.
Types Of Rocks!
The document discusses the three main types of rocks: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks form from cooling lava and can have large or small crystals depending on the cooling rate.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
