    This document classifies igneous rocks based on their cooling history and resulting texture. It divides igneous rocks into three categories: slow cooling leads to coarse-grained rocks like gabbro and granite; fast cooling produces fine-grained rocks such as basalt, diorite, and andesite; and very fast cooling forms glassy or cellular rocks including scoria, pumice, and obsidian. The classification scheme is based on cooling rate and the degree of crystallization that occurs.
