The three types of rocks

It’s the first thing you learn in a geology class – very briefly the three types of rocks are:

Igneous; they form from the cooling of magma deep inside the earth. They often have large crystals (you can see then with the naked eye).
Metamorphic; they are formed through the change (metamorphosis) of igneous and sedimentary rocks. They can form both underground and at the surface.
Sedimentary; they are formed through the solidification of sediment. They can be based off of organic remains (such as limestone), or just form from the cementing of other rocks.
