Pismo Beach has been inhabited       thirteen miles outside of
for more than 9,000 years by         Coalinga in the Los Gatos
Chumash Indians and became a         Canyon. Coalinga is located in
city in 1840. There are many         the central valley betweem Los

collected came from various          found in coastal regions. Also it
locations in Pismo Beach.            is easy to find rocks that contain
                                     coastal fossils.
Igneous Rocks
• The word Igneous comes from the Latin which means “Fire”
• Igneous rocks form from either magma within the Earth’s
  crust or Lava that has erupted.
• Igneous rocks that form from lava are called extrusive igneous
  rocks.
• Igneous rocks that form from magma are called intrusive
  igneous rocks.
• Igneous rocks that form from magma deep within the Earth
  are called plutonic igneous rocks.
• Igneous rocks are classified by the minerals that are within the
  rock.
I believe this rock to   I believe that this rock is
be Diorite. Diorite is   Gabbro. Gabbro is a the
a plutonic igneous       plutonic version of
rock which is            Basalt. Gabbro is low in
between granite          silica and does not

white plagioclase        magnetite and
feldspar and black       plagioclase.
hornblende.
Metamorphic Rocks
• Metamorphic rocks are formed from changed igneous and
  sedimentary rocks.
• Conditions underground is the cause of change of the igneous
  and sedimentary rocks.
• There are four agents of metamorphism:
• Heat
• Pressure
• Fluids
• Strain
I believe this rock to be Phyllite. I
discovered this rock in Los Gatos
Canyon. Phyllite is a foliated
metamorphic rock that is made of
mostly quartz, sericite mica, and
chlorite. Phyllite is made from
metamorphisized slate.
Sedimentary Rocks
• Sedimentary rocks are rocks that are formed from many
  different types of sediment.
• Sedimentary rocks are formed from many compacted pieces
  of sediment.
• These rocks are formed at the Earth’s surface, usually within
  bodies of water.
• The pieces of sediment that form sedimentary rocks are
  formed from erosion and weathering.
I believe this rock   I believe this rock to
to be red chert.      be conglomerate.
Chert is a fine-      Conglomerate is a
grained               sedimentary rock that
sedimentary rock      is composed of many
composed of           different types of
mineral               sediment that are
chalcedony or         larger than grains of
quartz.               rice.
