Description
Granite rocks are igneous rocks, which were formed by slowly cooling
pockets of magma that were trapped beneath the earth's surface.
Granite is used for long lasting monuments and for trim and decoration
on buildings. Igneous rocks are called fire rocks and are formed
either underground or aboveground. Underground, they are formed
when the melted rock, called magma, deep within the earth becomes
trapped in small pockets. As these pockets of magma cool slowly
underground, the magma becomes igneous rocks. Igneous rocks are
also formed when volcanoes erupt, causing the magma to rise above
the earth's surface. When magma appears above the earth, it is called
lava. Igneous rocks are formed as the lava cools above ground.
