Fractional Crystallization: As magma cools, its components begin to crystallize, forming minerals. Crystals form over time but successively. As magma cools and pressure changes, different minerals crystallize at different temperatures. This process, fractional crystallization, leads to the separation of solid phases from the liquid magma. The solid phases consist of minerals that have already crystallized, while the liquid phase is formed from remaining minerals, water, and gases.
Magma Differentiation:
