Igneous and Metamorphic Petrology
Bodies of rock possess a wide variety of physical, chemical, spatial, and chronological properties that reflect the geologic processes responsible fot their formation. Petrology is the study of these properties and processes. In this chapter, we will consider how paricular properties of bocies of rocks can provide specific clues to the origins. The petrologically most meaningful properties are the mineralogical and chemical compositions of the body and its fabric and field relations.
