Place Picture of the stone Type of rock Explanation

Outside our house METAMORPHIC This rock is a quartzite


stone. Where seen from our
backyard. I believe,
because of the high
temperature we experience
here at our place the rocks
was mold into a big rock
and then break into pieces
that’s why it becomes like
this.

Outside our house SEDIMENTARY This rock is a conglomerate


stone where seen outside
on our house. I believe, this
rock was not like this, it
was a small stones /from
remaining particle and
because of natural
processes it was cemented
together.

Outside our house SEDIMENTARY This rock is a gypsum


where also seen outside the
house. I believe, this is
came from pre-existing
rocks or crystals but
because of natural
processes again, it came up
with being bind to a big
rock and attach to it, that’s
why it was called as
sedimentary rock.
Outside our house SEDIMENTRAY This rock is called to be
sandstone. As you can see,
it was just covered by dirt
but there are particles or
pieces of sandstone that
being united into a big rock
because of natural
processes also, let say it
was cemented together. If
you break this rocks there
small particle will be
scattered around and seen
to be a small sandstone.
Because we are near the
ocean I think it could be
that source also.

Outside our house METAMORPHIC This rock is called to be a


marble. And as you can
see, it was covered by dirt
that’s why it looks like not
a marble, but it is. My
explanation for this is,
because of the conditions
of metamorphism the
calcite in the limestone
recrystallizes to form a
rock. Or let say it is
because of the heat and
pressure of metamorphism.
