A comprehensive guide to rock types and their uses, detailing the three main categories of rocks - Tipos de rocas sedimentarias compactación y cementación, magmatic, and metamorphic rocks - along with their formation processes and industrial applications. The guide explores how these rocks form through various geological processes and their practical uses in modern industry.
- Sedimentary rocks form through compaction and cementation of sediments
- Magmatic rocks originate from cooled magma, with variations based on cooling speed
- Metamorphic rocks result from existing rocks subjected to high pressure and temperature
- Various industrial applications ranging from construction to petrochemicals
- Specific uses include building materials, ceramics, and fossil fuels
