The Matterhorn is primarily composed of metamorphic rocks, particularly gneiss and schist, which are formed from the alteration of pre-existing rocks under heat and pressure. Additionally, the mountain features some granite intrusions. The unique geological history of the Matterhorn, including glacial activity, has shaped its iconic pyramid-like structure and exposed these rock types at its surface.
