The most abundant single constituent of rock is silicon dioxide, also known as quartz. It is a common mineral found in many types of rocks, including granite, sandstone, and shale.
The most abundant sedimentary rock is limestone, which is composed mainly of the mineral calcite. It forms from the accumulation of shell, coral, algal, and fecal debris. Limestone is found in many different environments and can vary in color and texture.
Rock is the most abundant material in the crust.
The most abundant intrusive rock in the continental crust is granite. It is a coarse-grained igneous rock composed primarily of feldspar, quartz, and mica. Granite is formed from the slow cooling and solidification of magma beneath the Earth's surface.
Limestone is the most abundant chemical sedimentary rock. It is formed mainly from the accumulation of the remains of marine organisms such as coral and shellfish. Limestone is used extensively in construction and as a raw material in various industries.
The majority of Earth's surface is covered in a veneer of sedimentary rock, making them the most visible surface rock.
The most abundant rock forming minerals are the silicates, like feldspars, micas, and quartz.
Igneous. Basalt is the most abundant in oceanic crust and granite is the most abundant in continental crust.
Limestone, made up of the mineral calcite is the most abundant carbonated rock.

That is correct.
The most abundant intrusive rock in the continental crust is granite. It is a coarse-grained igneous rock composed primarily of feldspar, quartz, and mica. Granite is formed from the slow cooling and solidification of magma beneath the Earth's surface.
On the continents--granite. Under the seas--gabbro.
