The weathering process involved in the formation of tors is exfoliation (onion skin weathering). Exfoliation can be mechanical or chemical. Mechanically, exfoliation may be a result of the different expansion rates between exterior and interior layers. Chemically, the exterior of the rock can be chemically altered to minerals of higher volume, causing it to slough off from the rock to which it was formerly attached.
