What is the responsible for the formation of exfoliation domes?

Granite forms plutonsof igneous rock several kilometers below the surface as magmaslowly cools and crystallizes. The granite is under great overhead pressure.Then, granite is uplifted to the surface during a mountain-building event. During the mountain building process, the overlying rock iseroded as the granite is uplifted, and the pressure on the granite reduced. The granite expands and forms fractures or sheet joints parallel to the surface. The granite then erodes in concentric layers (similar to how an onion peels) forming rounded masses called exfoliationdomes.
