in reply to Wafaa, OH: Igneous rocks are rocks made out of lava, or other volcanic activity. practically all rocks found in Hawaii would be igneous for example because of the volcanoes there. I hope this helped!

Stevie, I found a orange rock . It has something marble like every little bit in it and a few little holes scattered and on one side it looks like orange red like glass looking place. and some blisters on it and looks like it s been cut in places. who can I take it too . I've had it for years. I pick up rocks every time I find a special rock. we moved to Florida. in 1994 and I love rocks. I have some I'd love to show.to see what they are. especially this one. I'm move my rocks with me. Back home in the middle of Texas. I had a yard full and could only bring the special one.

you can identify a rock by hardness or streak. the softest rock in the world is talc which is used to make talcum powder. and the hardest is a diamond which is used for jewelry, well i think you knew that! a kid geologist, stevie

Ur number 1 fan, Tixxy


Sydney, MN | Rock
in reply to Steph's question, you do not normally find fossils in metamorphic rocks, becasue metamorphic rocs do just that-change, as their name suggests.typically they are changed by extreme heat and or pressure, so anything that might have been there would be gone!


Jonathan, CA | Rock
I was given a fossil by some rich old lady. It's certainly a fish, but don't know any information about it I've been trying to figure out how old it is, it's species, and what it's worth. Can anyone help me figure this out?
