Q2- A rock has been crystallized form magma then it is changed into a metamorphic rock and finally become a sedimentary rock as sandstone with mineral contents of quartz ( 85%), potassium feldspar (10%) and mica. 1- What is the name of igneous rock which contents these minerals? what is the type of this rock regarding silica content ? 2- What is the type of magma which produces this igneous rock ? what is the type of this rock regarding the environment of formation? 3- If we assume ( j) that this igneous rock is formed from lava, what are the type of lava, viscosity and the volcanic eruptions produce this igneous rock?

Question
Q2- A rock has been crystallized form magma then it is changed into a metamorphie rock and finally become a sedimentary rock as sandstone with mineral contents of quartz ( 85%), potassium feldspar (10%) and mica. 1- What is the ame of igneous rock which contents these minerals? what is the type of this rock regarding silica content ? 2- What is the type of magma which produces this igneous rock ? what is the type of this rock regarding the environment of formation? 3. If we assume ( ) that this igneous rock is formed from lava, what are the type of lava, viscosity and the volcanic eruptions produce this igneous rock? 4- What are the type of metamorphism agent that make this igneous rock changed? and what are the name of this metamorphic rock and its texture? 5- What are the type of weathering that make this metamorphic rock changed into sediments? and what are the produce of this kind of weathering? 6- What are the type of diagenesis that make this sediments becomes a sedimentary rock as a sandstone? what are the type of this rock and its texture? how we can classified this sedimentary rocks (sandstone)? If you could, explain these process consecutively (iag ia) from the moment that magma crystallized to form igneous rock until it become a sedimentary rock as sandstone.
