Volcano Rocks Igneous Rocks. Introduction Volcano rocks are igneous rocks that form during a volcanic eruption. They were all once magma which is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface. There are four major groups of the igneous rocks: basalt, andesite, dacite and rhyolite. Each of these different rock groups form different types of volcanoes. Volcanic rocks forming during eruption of Kilauea, USGS Rhyolite rocks Rhyolite magma cooling underground forms granite.
Metamorphic Rocks Lesson #14. Rocks are formed on Earth as igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks form when rocks are heated to the melting point which forms magma. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the cementing together of sediments, or from the compaction (squeezing together) of sediments, or from the recrystallization of new mineral grains which are larger than the original crystals.
