Mafic rocks are usually formed at high temperature and they are rich in ferromagnesian minerals such as olivine and pyroxene.

  • They are shown towards the top part of the discontinuous end.
  • Mafic rocks are usually formed at high temperature.
  • They have a high amount of magnesium and iron in them.
  • These element allows for a rock rich in mafic minerals to form.
  • Such minerals forms mafic rocks like pyroxenite, basalt etc.
  • At the lower end are the felsic.
  • They are rich in silica and are predominantly made up of feldspars and silica.
