It does and will change over a length of time.
Granite becomes Sandstone when water erodes the Granite on Earths surface, and then deposits the sediment.
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.
No, granite is not considered permeable as it is a dense and non-porous rock. Water and other liquids cannot easily pass through its surface.
Granite and gabbro both contain large crystals, but gabbro typically has larger crystals due to its slower cooling rate beneath the Earth's surface compared to granite which cools at or near the surface.
The three types of granite commonly used for making surface plates are black granite, pink granite, and gray granite. Black granite is favored for its uniformity and strength, while pink granite is known for its durability and aesthetic appeal. Gray granite, often used for its availability and cost-effectiveness, also provides good stability and resistance to wear. Each type has distinct properties that make it suitable for precision measurement and machining applications.

The difference between flamed and polished granite is following : Flamed : The Flaming is a type of finishing to change the surface of granite by burning it by flames. This procedure change the surface in some type of rough finishing. Polished : The polishing is a finishing to change the rough surface to smooth and glossy finishing. This process is done by polisher.
granite can change into gnies
Granite forms below the surface, but it can be found at the surface where it has been exposed by erosion or uplift.
Any natural stone surface can change color. All are porous, and subject to moisture absorption.
No, granite forms deep within the Earth's crust from the slow cooling of magma. It is an intrusive igneous rock, meaning it forms below the surface.
Granite.
The extrusive chemical equivalent of intrusive granite is rhyolite.
To determine if granite is sealed, you can perform a simple water test. Place a few drops of water on the surface of the granite and wait for about 15 minutes. If the water beads up and does not absorb into the granite, then it is sealed. If the water absorbs into the granite and darkens the surface, then it is not sealed and may require resealing.
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.
Granite is formed by the cooling and consolidation of felsic magma below the surface of the Earth.
The colour of granite does in fact change. For example it will change during the weathering process where feldspar minerals will change to clay minerals such as kaolinite. If the degree of weathering is high this can significantly alter the colour of the granite.
