Is the earth outer core made of basalt and granite?
it is not true
Is the earths outer core made out of basalt or granite?
Neither. The Earth's outer core is primarily composed of molten iron and nickel. Basalt and granite are rock types found in Earth's crust, which is above the outer core.
Granite and what are made when magma cools?
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.
Are basaltic igneous rocks lower in density than granitic rocks?
Granite is very much less dense than basalt. This is why the continental crust (mostly composed of granite) floats on Oceanic crust (made mostly of basalt). Granite is 70 % silicon. Where basalt is mainly pyroxene.
Is igneous rock granite or basalt?
Both granite ans basalt are types of igneous rock.
What is the Earth's core made mostly of?
basalt and granite
What is earths core mostly made of mostly?
basalt and granite

Which core of the earth is made of granite and salt?
The core of Earth is mad of iron and nickel. The crust, not the core, is made largely of iron and basalt.

What Material are obelisks made out of?
Ancient Egyptian obelisks are made of basalt or granite, but the Egyptians favored granite.
What layer of the Earth is made up of the rocks basalt and granite?
The Earth's outermost layer where basalt and granite are found is called the crust. Basalt is more common in the oceanic crust, while granite is more prevalent in the continental crust.
What is made of baUxite?
silicate rocks, such as granite, gneiss, basalt, and shale.
Is granite in basalt?
No. Granite and basalt have different compositions and form under different circumstances.
What type of grain do granite and basalt have?
Granite - coarse grained. Basalt - fine grained.
