What else can I help you with?
Does granite form magma?
Yes, granite is formed from cooling magma.
What is granite out of?
the granite is made out of magma
Granite and what are made when magma cools?
Granite and basalt are made when magma cools. Granite forms from slow-cooling magma underneath the Earth's surface, while basalt forms from rapidly-cooling magma on the surface.
Where does granite and basalt come from?
Both originate as molten magma but in the case of granite the magma is acidic and in the case of basalt the magma is basic.
Where does granite come from?
magma
Is granite made by magma that was trapped in the earth's crust?
Yes. Granite forms when silica-rich magma cools underground.
Does granite form from magma?
Yes, granite forms from the slow cooling and solidification of magma deep within the Earth's crust. As the magma cools, minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica crystallize and combine to form granite. This process typically occurs over millions of years.
What does felsic magma make after its solid?
It will form granite if it cools underground and rhyolite if it cools at the surface.
Granite is formed from magma inside earth which type of rock is granite?
Granite is an igneous rock.
How can substances in granite enter magma?
Substances in granite can enter magma through a process called assimilation. When magma intrudes into pre-existing rock like granite, it can incorporate elements and minerals from the surrounding rock into the melt, altering its composition. This can happen through melting and assimilation of parts of the granite or through the mixing of magma with granite-derived fluids.
What does granite form from?
In the volcano/magma chamber, different minerals that make up granite, (feldspar, quartz, etc.) mix to form grainy, large crystals of the different minerals. That is how granite is formed.
Does granite form from gases?
No, granite forms from the slow cooling and solidification of molten rock beneath the Earth's surface. This process allows the minerals within the rock to crystallize and form the characteristic interlocking grain structure of granite.
