The stages of the rock cycle include weathering, erosion and transport, sediment deposition, burial and compaction, crystallization, melting, uplift, and deformation and metamorphism. These stages result in forming three types of rocks: igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary.

are formed near the Earth's surface. They are from pieces of other existing rock or organic material. Processes such as erosion, weathering, dissolution, precipitation, and lithification can lead to the creation of sedimentary rocks.

are consists of rocks and minerals. They are produced through the lithification of inorganic and/or organic sediments and when rocks are uplifted. They become sedimentary rocks when they are lithified.

# data[].attributes.body
are rocks whose original form has changed from igneous, sedimentary, or earlier metamorphic form due to immense heat and pressure

# data[].attributes.body
when magma or molten hot material cools and solidifies, igneous rocks are produced. These rocks can change into sedimentary or metamorphic rocks.

# data[].attributes.body
as rocks are melted, magmas are formed. They flow out of the volcano when it erupts and becomes a lava. As the lava cools and hardens, it becomes an igneous rock.

is a chain of processes that produce and transform the rock types in Earth's crust.
