Rocks are composed of more than one mineral, while minerals are pure substances composed of the same material. There are three main types of rocks: sedimentary rocks which are formed from compressed layers of other materials; igneous rocks which form when lava cools; and metamorphic rocks which are existing rocks that are altered by heat and pressure. Minerals have distinct crystal structures and chemical compositions, and can be elements, sulfates, or oxides containing metals and oxygen. Common rocks and minerals are used for construction materials, electronics, jewelry, and other applications depending on their properties.

2. Rocks and Minerals
Made up of more than one mineral Pure (made of the same mineral)

3. Rocks and Minerals
Rocks
1. Make up of more than one
mineral
2. No cristals
3. Not at prety as minerals
4. No definite the shape
5. Colour is not the same
6. Some have fossils
Minerals
1. Pure (made of the same
mineral)
2. Some have crystals
3. Usually preate
4. Usually have a shape
5. Colour is usually the same
6. No fossils

4. Rocks
• Are cluesters of minerals and other inorganic
material

5. Rocks:Fosils

6. Types of rocks
Metamorphic
Sedimentary
Ingenous

7. Ingenuos rocks
• Form when lava from volcano cools and
hardens
• Basalt and quarz
basaltquarz

8. Sedimentari rocks
• Layers of others rocks fragmerts or fosils when
compact in millionss of years .example :clay ,
limistone ,sandstone.
Clay
Limestone
sandstone

9. Metamorfiphic rocks
• Ingenuos and sedimentari rocks are pushed
down by other rocks ,and then extreme heat
“bakes” them :
Marble

10. Marble
Granite
Sandstone
Are cavered to make stautes
Quarz
Limestone
Used to make glass
Marble
Material
Uses
Used on counter tops in
kitchenes and in decorations

11. Minerals
Minerals
Pure minerals sulphates
oxides

12. Minerals
• Are sturctured crystals with specific
chemicalm componentes

13. Pure : minerals
• Called elements because they contain only one
component
• diamonds
Diamonds

14. Sulphates
• They are fragile a contain sulphur
• Gipsum
Gipsum

15. Oxides
• They contain metals and oxgens they vary in
colours and hardness
• rubies
Rubies

16. Limestone
Concrate and cement used on rouds
and buildings
Quartz
Used in wathes and other electroniis
Diamods
Used in jewellery or ever in drills for
mining and dentistry
Talc
Used in talcum powder ,because it is a
solid lubricants
