I started rock collecting when I was a little kid in the Granite State, so yeah, found a lot of that!

So, was there a time, long before Pangea, when earth's surface was largely granite floating on magma? Would love to have seen that crystallization as it occurred!

So, I'm assuming that it took many 1000's, if not millions of years to form and harden, correct?

[NeCoruption]

So if it takes so long to become hard, why dont ee think the Egyptians had a softer form of it to build with?

It was at least 3000 years softer if that means anything

Pitiful! ZERO explaination on how the different stones have been mixed together when they have differnt melting points and densities. More scientism BS.
