Explanation

(a)  Charateristics of igneous rocks

  • Formed from molten magma/volcanic eruption;
  • Crystalline in nature;
  • Resistant to weathering and erosion;
  • Contains mainly primary minerals;
  • Coarse or fine grained particles which is visible;
  • Light or dark coloured;
  • They are very hard.
