Granito
El granito / ɡrænɨt / es un tipo común de roca ígnea intrusiva félsica que es granular y phaneritic en textura.

Estas rocas consisten principalmente en feldespato, cuarzo, mica y minerales anfíboles. Estos forman entrelazando una matriz equigranular de feldespato y cuarzo con mica de biotita más oscura y anfíbola que salpican los minerales de color más claro.
