No. Diamonds are found with trace minerals in volcanic pipes, which geologically are not where granite is formed. (Granite is formed from silicate; diamonds are formed from carbon.)
Granite is an igneous rock.
Quartzite, granite, and sandstone are all types of sedimentary or metamorphic rocks. They are related in the sense that they are formed from different processes involving the compression and transformation of sediments. Quartzite is derived from sandstone through intense heat and pressure, while granite is an igneous rock that forms from the cooling and solidification of molten magma. Sandstone, on the other hand, is formed from sand particles that are compacted and cemented together over time.
One metamorphic rock that starts with "n" is the rock called "gneiss." Gneiss is formed from the alteration of pre-existing rocks, such as granite or sedimentary rocks, through intense heat and pressure. It is characterized by its banded or foliated appearance and can have various mineral compositions.
No. The metamorphism of shale forms slate. Granite is formed when high-silica magma cools underground.
i think granite because it was formed under the earth in deep pressure and heat but marble has weaker bonds in its particles. marble was formed by limestone with not alot of pressure as granite or heat. granite is way strongger
They are formed when you have a rock that has pressure and heat added to it which creates a different rock. (ex. granite ___ geniss )
Quartz and mica. Clay minerals come from decomposing feldspars.
Granite, china clay is a by product of granite which means when granite is weathered and put under pressure china clay is formed . Hope this helps!

Granite is classified as an intrusive igneous rock.
No. Granite is an intrusive igneous rock, formed from the solidification of magma underground. Slate is a low grade metamorphic rock formed from heat and pressure applied to deposits of shale, a sedimentary rock.
No. However, crystal can frequently be found in granite. This is due to the fact that both can be formed under similar circumstances, (i.e. extreme heat and pressure).
Serpentine is a metamorphic mineral, so it was formed by high heat and great pressure, most often from peridotite.
