List two areas in Kenya with igneous rocks, identify rock types from images (igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic), state two significances of rocks in Kenya, and name two methods for studying local rock

You're on a roll — here are the solutions to the questions: d) Name TWO areas in Kenya where igneous rocks are found. i) Rift Valley region* (e.g., around volcanic mountains like Mt. Kenya, Mt. Elgon, Suswa, Longonot, Menengai) ii) Central Kenya Highlands* e) Identify the type of rocks shown below. i. (Image of a coarse-grained rock) Igneous rock* (e.g., Granite) ii. (Image of a dark, fine-grained rock) Sedimentary rock* (e.g., Shale) iii. (Image of a lighter, somewhat uniform rock) Metamorphic rock* (e.g., Marble) State TWO significance of rocks in Kenya. i) Rocks are a source of construction materials* such as ballast, cement, and building stones. ii) Rocks contain valuable minerals* like fluorspar, soda ash, and gemstones, which are important for the economy. State TWO methods used to study rocks in the local environment. i) Field observation/Excursion* to directly examine rock outcrops and features. ii) Collecting samples* for laboratory analysis to determine their composition and properties.
