What is Aruba made of?

Three main rock groups make up Aruba. One, igneous rocks were formed from volcanic activity that occurred about 90 to 95 million years ago. Igneous rocks on Aruba include diabase, tuffs [from Italian 'tufo'], and schists. Two, metamorphic rocks were formed from previous existing rocks that were transformed by high temperatures and pressure. Metamorphic rocks on Aruba include quartz diorite, gabbro, and a distinctive variety of quartz diorite called 'hooibergite.' Three, sedimentary rocks were formed on top of the older igenous and metamorphic rocks. Sedimentary rocks are the youngest rocks on Aruba. Limestone is the sedimentary rock on Aruba.
