Magma or lava cools to form this rock...
What is igneous rock?
Schist is this type of rock...
What is metamorphic rock?
Forms when it starts cooling slowly, but then the cooling speeds up...
What is porphyritic?
Process by which rock particles are arranged in layers...
What is stratification?
When minerals are squeezed together and form “bands” of crystals...

DCC occurs when this happens...
