根据成因,构成地壳的岩石可以分为岩浆岩、沉
积岩和变质岩三大类。

Cliff Erosion
Devils Tower Wyoming
The exposed rocks at Devils Tower National
Monument are classified into two general
types: igneous and sedimentary. The tower
itself is composed of igneous rock formed by
cooling and crystallization of once-molten
materials. The rocks exposed around the tower
are sedimentary-layers of shale, sandstone, silt
stone, mud stone, gypsum, and limestone.
They were formed by the consolidation of
fragmented materials derived from other rocks
or the accumulation of chemical precipitates
that were deposited on the floors or near the
shores of ancient seas. Devils Tower owes its
impressive height to the differing rates of
erosion of these two rock types-the soft
sedimentary rocks have eroded more readily
than the hard igneous rock. One of the most
striking features of the tower is its polygonal
columns, formed as the igneous mass slowly
cooled and crystallized. Most of the columns
are 5-sided, but some are 4-sided or 6-sided.
Numerous cross-fractures in the upper part of
the tower divide the columns into many small,
irregularly-shaped blocks. [Photo credit:

Arizona has some of the most spectacular geology anywhere! The Grand Canyon, the worlds premier
geologic locality, exposes 1.7 billion years of geologic history in its walls. The photograph to the left
shows a beautiful view of the Grand Canyon, with its upper flat-lying layers of Paleozoic limestone,
sandstone, and mudstone.
