Crystallization: It is the process of forming crystals from a solution or melt, often occurring in igneous rocks as magma cools and solidifies.
Weathering: It is the breakdown and decomposition of rocks at or near the Earth's surface due to exposure to various environmental factors such as water, wind, and temperature changes.
Erosion: It is the process of wearing away rocks and transporting sediments by natural forces like water, wind, and ice, leading to the reshaping of landscapes.
Deposition: It is the laying down or accumulation of sediments, often in bodies of water or on land, as a result of erosion and transport processes.
Lithification: It is the process of turning loose sediment into sedimentary rock through compaction and cementation over time.
Metamorphism: It is the process by which existing rocks undergo changes in mineral composition, texture, or structure due to high pressure, temperature, or the introduction of new chemical solutions.
