Yes, granite forms from the slow cooling and solidification of magma deep within the Earth's crust. As the magma cools, minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica crystallize and combine to form granite. This process typically occurs over millions of years.
Diorite does not turn into granite. Diorite and granite are two distinct types of igneous rocks with different mineral compositions. Diorite forms from the cooling of magma with a different composition than the magma that forms granite.
Yes, granite is an igneous rock formed from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
Granite takes longer to form than rhyolite. Granite is an intrusive igneous rock formed from the slow cooling of magma deep within the Earth's crust, which can take millions of years. Rhyolite, on the other hand, is an extrusive igneous rock formed from the rapid cooling of lava at the surface, which occurs more quickly than the formation of granite.
No."Granite is formed by the slow cooling & crystallization of magma at some depth in the earth's crust, as indicated by its characteristic phaneritic & phaneritic-porphyritic texture."-The Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Rocks & Minerals

Yes, granite is formed from cooling magma.
the granite is made out of magma
Granite and basalt are made when magma cools. Granite forms from slow-cooling magma underneath the Earth's surface, while basalt forms from rapidly-cooling magma on the surface.
Both originate as molten magma but in the case of granite the magma is acidic and in the case of basalt the magma is basic.
magma
Yes. Granite forms when silica-rich magma cools underground.
Yes, granite forms from the slow cooling and solidification of magma deep within the Earth's crust. As the magma cools, minerals such as quartz, feldspar, and mica crystallize and combine to form granite. This process typically occurs over millions of years.
Granite is an igneous rock.
Yes
Not from the magma, no. Cooled and solidified magma is classified as igneous. However, metamorphic rocks can be formed as the heat and hot fluids of intruding magma affect the properties and possibly the chemistry of the existing "country rock" into which it comes in contact. This process is called contact metamorphism.
