Rotsmaterialen
Rotsmaterialen, also known as rock materials, refers to the naturally occurring solid mineral substances that make up the Earth's crust. These materials are classified into three main types based on their formation: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten rock, either magma beneath the surface or lava on the surface. Examples include granite and basalt. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and cementation of mineral or organic particles, often in layers. Sandstone, limestone, and shale are common examples. Metamorphic rocks are formed when existing rocks are transformed by heat, pressure, or chemical reactions, without melting. Marble, slate, and quartzite are examples of metamorphic rocks.
The properties of rotsmaterialen vary greatly depending on their mineral composition, grain size, texture, and the
