petrolológia
Petrológia is the scientific study of rocks, their origin, composition, structure, and the processes that form and transform them. It is a subdiscipline of geology that focuses on the physical and chemical properties of rocks and the geological history they represent. The field is broadly divided into three main branches: igneous petrology, sedimentary petrology, and metamorphic petrology, each focusing on a specific rock type and its formation environment.
Igneous petrology examines rocks formed from the cooling and solidification of molten rock, either magma below
Petrologists use a variety of methods to study rocks, including microscopic examination of thin sections, chemical
