No. Granite and basalt have different compositions and form under different circumstances.
Basalt and Granite are igneous rocks which are very hard.
Granite and basalt are both igneous rocks; however, basalt is considered a volcanic rock, and granite is considered a plutonic rock.
Granite is higher in silica than is basalt.
Granite has more silica than basalt in it.
Granite - coarse grained. Basalt - fine grained.
Basalt does have a greater specific gravity. Granite is not as dense as basalt.
No. Basalt is extrusive whilst granite is intrusive, among other things.
Both granite ans basalt are types of igneous rock.
Granite.
As it turns out, most of the ocean floor is basalt, and most of the continents are granite.
i think that basalt is the smaller crystals out of the two, as the crystals in granite are larger.
Granite is very much less dense than basalt. This is why the continental crust (mostly composed of granite) floats on Oceanic crust (made mostly of basalt). Granite is 70 % silicon. Where basalt is mainly pyroxene.
