Where could you find granite?
Granite is quarried in huge blocks (up to 35 tons!) from the mountains of Italy, the US, India, Brazil, Norway and dozens of other countries.
What is the most abundant element in Earths continental crust by weight is?
oxygen is the most abundent element present i n the earth crust by weight.Because it makes covelent bond with silicon to form silicates ,which react with other minoer elements of the earth to foem a huge number of silicate minerals.
What is a mountain that is a fault-block mountain?
These mountains form when faults or cracks in the earth's crust force some materials or blocks of rock up and others down. Instead of the earth folding over, the earth's crust fractures (pulls apart). It breaks up into blocks or chunks. Sometimes these blocks of rock move up and down, as they move apart and blocks of rock end up being stacked on one another.
What is plate in social studies?

How miners been able to dig into Earth's crust?

What happens to earths surface as huge pieces of crust move?
most times earthquakes occur
What percent of Earths crust do silicates make up?
silicon percent abundance in earths crust poops
Difference between fault block mountains and folded mountains?
Fault mountains are formed when rocks crack down due to lines of weakness in the earths crust. This cause huge blocks to move forming block mountains. Fold mountains are formed when land is folded into wave like shapes because of the tectonic movements underneath the earth crust.
What is the magnetism of the earth's crust?
Earth's magnetic field is not in its crust. It passes through the crust, but it is generated by the differential motion of the inner and outer core. The core is mostly iron and nickel. This creates huge dynamo and generates our magnetosphere.
What is the Magnetic Field of earth's crust?
Earth's magnetic field is not in its crust. It passes through the crust, but it is generated by the differential motion of the inner and outer core. The core is mostly iron and nickel. This creates huge dynamo and generates our magnetosphere.
What is earths moon made of?
The moon is a huge ball of rock, chemically similar to the rocks of the Earth's crust and mantle. It does not have a core of nickel and iron, unlike the Earth.
What is the name for the huge concrete blocks used for bins and walls?
Commercial Bin Blocks or just Bin Blocks
Mountains are made by movements in earths?
Yes! Amazing isn't it! Mountains are formed by slow but gigantic movements of the earths crust. The Earth's crust is made up of 6 huge slabs called plates, which fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. When to slabs of the earth's crust smash into each other the land can be pushed upwards, forming mountains. Many of the greatest mountain ranges of the world have formed because of enormous collisions between continents.
