an idealized cycle of processes undergone by rocks in the earth's crust, involving igneous intrusion, uplift, erosion, transportation, deposition as sedimentary rock, metamorphism, remelting, and further igneous intrusion.

Igneous rocks can form beneath the Earth 's surface, or at its surface, as lava. Note : Granite, solid volcanic lava, and basalt are examples of igneous rock.

Sedimentary rocks are often deposited in layers, and frequently contain fossils. Note : Limestone and shale are common sedimentary rocks.

Rock that was once one form of rock but has changed to another under the influence of heat, pressure, or some other agent without passing through a liquid phase. Note : Examples are marble, which can be formed from limestone, and slate, which is formed from shale.

The term rock strata refers to stacked-up layers of sedimentary rock. Other kinds of rocks can have layering in them, but the wordstrata is reserved for sedimentary rocks - rocks composed of individual fragments of minerals or other rocks.
