Granite is an igneous composite of quartz, feldspar and plagioclase. None of these materials are good conductors of electricity. Quartz is similar to glass, both being silicon dioxide. Glass in an excellent insulator, and so is quartz. Feldspar is also an excellent insulator. So is plagioclase. So, is granite a good conductor of electricity?
Nope.
That said, quartz is also a piezoelectric material. If a charge is applied to a quartz crystal, the crystal bends/twists, or otherwise moves. Also, if the crystal is struck, bent, twisted or otherwise moved, it develops a static charge that will quickly dissipate. The random arrangement of crystals in granite make harvesting these charges impossible.
Granite was selected by the pyramid engineers for its strength, not piezoelectric properties of the quartz it contains.
it is a conductor as all other metals and the gold is also good conductor as silver!!!
conductor- metal (especially copper) is a great conductor of electricity. Silver is a great conductor of heat.

1. Granite is a course-grained intrusive silicic igneous rock, it is a nonmetallic resource. Therefore they are not malleable nor a conductor. Even though granite contains metal ions, the minerals in granite contain relatively little metal, so it would cost more to separate the metal from the granite.
Graphite is a good conductor of heat due to its unique structure. The arrangement of carbon atoms in graphite allows for the easy movement of electrons, which helps to transfer heat energy efficiently throughout the material. This high thermal conductivity is what makes graphite a valuable material for applications where heat dissipation is important.
the granite is made out of magma
based on mid prices in G.E. full granite including granite helm (28k), granite body (126k), granite legs (263k) and granite shield (38k) it would only cost about 450k.

Granite turns into Gniess.
granite can change into gnies
You have spelt granite right.
Granite is a noun.
No, granite is heterogeneous
