  • Pegmatite Rock: Igneous Formation, Crystal Size & Properties
    Pegmatite is an igneous rock.

    Here's why:

    * Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma (molten rock) or lava.

    * Pegmatites are specifically formed from very slow-cooling, highly viscous magma, resulting in exceptionally large mineral crystals.

    * Sedimentary rocks form from the accumulation and cementation of sediments.

    * Metamorphic rocks form when existing rocks are transformed by heat, pressure, or chemical reactions.
