Granite and limestone are very different rocks. Granite is an igneous rock formed from magma. It contains many different types of minerals.
Granite does not have a specified size. It may be small as a pebble or as big as a mountain. However, granite is said to be phaneritic in texture which means that the crystal sizes are large enough to see with the naked eye and are not larger than thumb-sized crystals.
Salt is a single compound, but granite contains different compounds. Salt has a single crystal, but a slab of granite contains more than one crystal. Salt contains different compounds, but granite contains different elements. Salt can be dissolved in water, but granite can not be dissolved.
granite's crystal size varies from 1 mm to 10 mm
Granite is an igneous rock with visible mineral crystals.
marble
Granite is very resistant to fracture because of its interlocking mineral crystal structure.
Yes.
To the crystal ball
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).
in granite the crstals are so big, they ussually take up at least 70 percent of the pice of rock.
Mainly within igneous rocks. Granite for example.
