What are rocks?

Simply put, rocks are naturally occurring aggregates (collections) of minerals. What makes rocks so different is their diversity-they can range from masses of minerals formed by volcanic action, from eroded sediment, or from great pressures and high temperatures. Rocks are usually composed of more than one mineral, although in rare cases they can be entirely composed of a single mineral, in which case they are called monomineralic rocks.
