There are three main types of rocks found in nature:

  1. Igneous rocks - formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
  2. Sedimentary rocks - formed from the accumulation and compression of sediments over time.
  3. Metamorphic rocks - formed from the alteration of existing rocks by heat, pressure, or the intrusion of fluids.
