Abstract
The goal of this activity is to offer a practical guide to the classification of igneous rocks according to their mineralogical composition, as well as to infer some elementary aspects of their genesis from their texture. Optical Petrography will be used as a classic tool whose essential importance is being re-stressed today in studying minerals and rocks. Practical work will focus on a reduced number of selected rocks, both allowing unequivocal classification and showing an interesting geologic history.
