Why does the color of granite never change?
The colour of granite does in fact change. For example it will change during the weathering process where feldspar minerals will change to clay minerals such as kaolinite. If the degree of weathering is high this can significantly alter the colour of the granite.

Script writing meaning of VO?
VO is script shorthand for voice over.In a scene where you want the character's dialog to be heard, but the character is not on screen, you can write the dialog like this (using screen formatting margins):KEVIN (V.O.)She never understood my games.Another AnswerYou can use VO when the character is not present, as distinct from OS -- script shorthand for off-screen, which is used when the character is present in the scene but not seen by the camera.

What is the crystal group structure of granite?
Granite does not belong to any crystal structure group because granite is a rock, not a mineral, and only minerals can be grouped by crystal form or shape. Minerals are naturally occurring solids which form the earth and make up its rocks. Minerals develop in predictable geometric patterns called crystals. The term used to describe a crystal's general shape is habit. Some examples of crystal habit groups are cubic, prismatic, tabular, etc. Minerals are sometimes called the building blocks of rocks because rocks are usually made up of 2 or more minerals which formed together in the same space, often without enough room for recognizable crystal formation. The minerals involved and the environment they formed in will determine the type of rock they make. Granite is a rock formed underground from cooled magma (lava that never reached the earth's surface) containing the minerals quartz, feldspar, mica and others. Each individual mineral in a rock belongs to a particular crystal group, but not the rock itself.
Which is harder basalt or granite?
Both basalt and granite are types of rock, and a rock is composed of multiple minerals - except for some rocks composed of essentially one mineral like limestone (calcite) or quartzite (quartz). Minerals are crystalline compounds with known characteristics such as hardness, specific gravity, etc Therefore the hardness of the rock depends on the exact location on the rock you are testing the hardness, as it will vary from mineral to mineral. Some minerals even have differential hardness. Granite is composed of quartz, feldspar, and usually some ferromagnesian minerals such as biotite or hornblende (depending on the definition of a granite). Basalt is composed mostly of plagioclase (a feldspar) and pyroxene. Each of those minerals has a different hardness, and geologists never use the hardness of a "rock" to determine what kind of rock it is. Basalt is usually much finer grained than granite so it would be virtually impossible to determine the hardness of the individual mineral crystals. On Moh's hardness scale, the hardness of these rock-forming minerals are as follows: Quartz 7 Feldspar 6 (depending on the species of feldspar) Biotite 2.5-3 Pyroxene 5-6 (depending on the species of pyroxene) So the hardness of a rock is determined by the minerals, and in a coarse grained rock like a granite, the hardness can vary widely. The hardest mineral in granite (quartz) is harder than the hardest mineral in basalt (feldspar), but that's not enough to say that granite is conclusively harder than basalt. The resistance to breaking of a rock (which could be confused with the apparent hardness to a non-expert) is greatly affected by fractures, weathering, induration, welding, and many other features which are independent of mineral content.

What is the process of granite?
Because of the structure of granite, it is never quarried by blasting because this would shatter the granite. Two methods; Drilling and Jet Piercing, are used to cut the granite out of the quarry. In Drilling, vertical holes are drilled about one inch apart to the desired depth (up to 20 feet), and the granite remaining between the holes is later removed by secondary drilling.

What are the most popular colors of granite sink?
Light coloured granite is actually one of the best choices for a busy kitchen. Alaska White is one of the most popular colours of granite in the market today. It is a frosty blend of pale silver and frosty whites, marketed with warm neutrals and onyx hues. It is a timeless & classic granite material that will never go out of style. Five Stones is considered a leading Exporter of Alaska White Granite in India. However, Alaska White granite slabs can vary in appearance considerably, with some slabs of this granite being much more attractive than others.
