Split Apple Rock is made of granite, which is an igneous rock formed from the crystallization of magma below the Earth's surface. Granite is composed mainly of quartz, feldspar, and mica minerals, giving it a speckled appearance and high durability.
Split Apple Rock is a type of sedimentary rock. It is a sandstone concretion that formed over millions of years through the accumulation and cementation of sand grains. The distinctive split in the rock is believed to have been caused by natural weathering processes such as freeze-thaw cycles and erosion. Therefore, Split Apple Rock is not igneous or metamorphic in nature.
