Goals Aim of this course is to determine Texture formation in magmatic rocks, effect on crystallization process and texture formation
Course Content Special textures of igneous rocks, types of magma and their occurrences, magma mixing mingling, textural types within the magma mixing products, chemical compositions of the minerals, geothermometer and geobarometer calculations of igneous rocks, cooperation of mineral chemistry and definition of their formations.
Learning Outcomes 1) Classification of texture in magmatic rocks
2) Tissue differentiation processes, Microscopic sample illustrations for each process
3) Relation of texture definitions to rock definitions
4) The importance of multiple and single tissues in petrology
5) Magma mixing processes, textures and petrological importance
6) Relationship with Anklav and magmatism.
7) The importance of petrolojin in mining
8) Literature search and prevention of petrology.
9) The relationship between meaning and meaning of the new printed articles on petrology
10) Name the rocks using textural features and interpret the formation conditions.
