Could you find granite and bricks in the ground?

Granite is typically found deep in the Earth's crust and requires mining to extract. Bricks, on the other hand, are manufactured from clay and other materials, not found naturally in the ground.


Can you see granite's crystal's?

Yes, granite is an intrusive igneous rock which means that it formed under ground from slow cooling of magma. The slower the magma cools, the larger the minerals will be in the rock. Typically, granite has a medium-grained texture but it can have large crystals also. You can see the individual minerals without a hand magnifier.


Why is granite an intrusive igneous rock?

It is igneous because it crystallizes out of cooling magma. It is intrusive because it can only form deep below ground. The magma cools down very slowly when it is deep below ground and this allows the different minerals that make up granite to grow crystals to sizes big enough that you can see them with the naked eye. If it had cooled fast, like if it was at the surface, then the individual crystals making it up would be super tiny and the resulting rock could not be classified as granite.


What rock is dug out of the ground?

Various types of rocks are dug out of the ground, including sedimentary rocks like limestone and sandstone, igneous rocks like granite and basalt, and metamorphic rocks like marble and slate. These rocks are used for construction, landscaping, and manufacturing purposes.


Granite and ryholite have similar composition but granite is course-grained whereas rhyolite is fine grained what is the difference?

The main difference is in the cooling rate - granite cools slowly beneath the Earth's surface, allowing larger crystals to form, giving it a coarse-grained texture. Rhyolite, on the other hand, cools rapidly at the surface, leading to smaller crystals and a fine-grained texture.

What erosion agent is responsible for mud slides and boulders rolling down hills?

Water is the erosion agent responsible for mudslides and boulders rolling down hills. When heavy rainfall saturates the ground, it can cause mudslides by destabilizing the soil. The force of flowing water can also dislodge boulders and other debris, causing them to roll downhill.
