Why are there no index fossils in the granite and basalt?
Granite and basalt are both igneous rocks - they are formed from magma extruded into another rock layer or from expulsion from a volcano. The heat of the cooling rock would completely melt any fossils they came into contact with and destroy them, so you don't see fossils in these rocks.
Examples of permeable and impermeable rocks?
