به خواندن ادامه دهیدA rock is any naturally occurring mass that forms a part of the earth's crust. Such a mass may consist of sediments and particles (sand, gravel, clay, or volcanic ash, for example) as well as solid material (limestone, sandstone, granite, etc.). A rock generally is composed of one or more minerals.
به خواندن ادامه دهیدGranite Granite is a felsic, generally equigranular, relatively light coloured intrusive rock.It comprises some of the oldest known rocks on Earth, and is the most abundant basement rock underlying the relatively thin sedimentary rock cover of the continents. Granite is produced in volcanic arcs, and more commonly in mountain building resulting from the collision of two continental masses.

به خواندن ادامه دهیدGranite. Granite is the most common intrusive rock in Earth's continental crust, It is familiar as a mottled pink, white, gray, and black ornamental stone. It is coarse- to medium-grained. Its three main minerals are feldspar, quartz, and mica, which occur as silvery muscovite or dark biotite or both. Of these minerals, feldspar predominates ...
به خواندن ادامه دهیدGranite is primarily comprised of feldspar, quartz, micas, and a mixture of many trace minerals. These minerals and the abundance and percentage of them are what gives granite the many colors, patterns, and variations that beautiful granite is known for.
به خواندن ادامه دهیدThe igneous rock is comprised of principally quartz and feldspar, together with smaller quantities of assorted different minerals. An instance of the hardness of a granite countertop might be seen in the truth that a knife blade won't scratch the floor.

The mineral pertite is an intergrowth of albite or oligoclase with a microcline/orthoclase host.
به خواندن ادامه دهیدGranitoids also have dark minerals, sometimes quite a lot and sometimes hardly any. Usually, feldspar-plus-quartz dominates, and geologists call granitoids felsic rocks in recognition of this. A true granite can be rather dark, but if you ignore the dark minerals and assess only the felsic component, it can still be properly classified.

While the rock on the left has an abundance of orthoclase, (the pink mineral), the rock on the right has more quartz minerals, yet they are both granite rocks. Some rocks consist predominately of a single mineral like limestone and sandstone.
به خواندن ادامه دهیدRocks containing less than 20 percent quartz are almost never named granite, and rocks containing more than 20 percent (by volume) of dark, or ferromagnesian, minerals are also seldom called granite.

به خواندن ادامه دهیدWhat Granite Means . Students of granites classify them in three or four categories. I-type (igneous) granites appear to arise from the melting of preexisting igneous rocks, S-type (sedimentary) granites from melted sedimentary rocks (or their metamorphic equivalents in both cases). M-type (mantle) granites are rarer and are thought to have evolved directly from deeper melts in the mantle.
