1. Petrology: Petrology, the science of rocks, the branch of geology which is concerned with the investigation of the composition, structure and history of the rock masses which make up the accessible portions of the earth's crust. Rocks have been defined ... [100%] 2022-09-02
2. Petrology: Petrology is a field of geology that focuses on the study of rocks and the conditions under which they are formed. It utilizes the classical fields of mineralogy, petrography, and chemical analyses to describe the structure and composition of rocks ... [100%] 2023-02-04
3. Petrology: Petrology (from Ancient Greek πέτρος (pétros) 'rock' and -λογία (-logía) 'study of') is the branch of geology that studies rocks, their mineralogy, composition, texture, structure and the conditions under which they form. Petrology has three subdivisions: igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary petrology.
