What is Granite rock?

Granite is an example of very hard and durable stones and has high polishing ability. Granite stones are found in red, black, brown, chocolate, pink, blue and green.

Gradual cooling of molten rock to form large crystals of a mineral that there are essentials in granites.

Therefore, the grain size on granite fits how cooling is molten rock.
