Petrologic
Petrologic refers to the branch of geology that deals with the origin, composition, structure, and alteration of rocks, particularly igneous and metamorphic rocks. It involves the study of the processes that form rocks and the identification of minerals and their relationships within rocks. Petrologists analyze the textures, mineralogy, and chemical composition of rocks to understand Earth's history and the conditions under which rocks were formed.
