Transcript: One of the most widely known rock in the world The term "granite" is derived from Latin word "granum" which means grain. Popular material for monuments Used in landscaping, road base, sculpting, monuments, counter-tops, wall tiles, etc. It is very abundant rock, so there is no need for any conservation strategies Granite: Where is it located? Granite is found and identified through core sampling, and it is mostly mined through drilling with explosives. The drilling pattern and the explosion used to determine the shape. Through modern technology, today, we can control the drilling pattern to break the rock into slabs in shapes we desire. Alternative method: Filling the drilled hole with water and let it freeze. As the water freezes, it expands, eventually breaking the rock into pieces. Formation Type: Igneous, Class: Intrusive Comes with many different colors (White, pink, orange, gray, black) One of the hardest material along with diamond. Lacks reactivity, they are resistant to acids and other harmful chemicals. Very durable: "Heat resistant, weather resistant and chemical resistant" Granite Not much have economic impacts of granite have changed from past to present, as granite is still important to the industry involving constructions. In United States, granite is one of the most utilized crushed stone in private industry as well as for the government (such as department of transportation), for the construction of the roads, national monuments, and railroad beds. Demands for granite has only been rising. The granite has a large concentration in many places in the world. In United States, New Hampshire (State of Granite) and Vermont (Granite capital of the world) produce large amount of granite. One of their deposits are nearly 35 miles long, 6 miles wide and 3 miles deep. Granite is also quarried in many other countries such as Canada, Finland, Norway, Brazil, India, Spain, South Africa and much more. Introduction Mining and Socioeconomic impacts How is Granite formed, and where is it located? Impact on Environment Water pollution: improper disposal of mining wastes. Decline in fish population. Silicosis and tuberculosis between mine workers. Hard material to recycle. The use of granite and the environmental impact of granite quarries has not been a subject of heated debate 3A - JunYoung Kim Granite mining site at Vermont Mainly 4 minerals: Quartz(20 to 60 %), Feldspar, Mica and Hornblende Socioeconomic Impacts Citations Primary (printed documents) 1.

Granite

Transcript: Quartz is a main part of Granite and looks like that. Quartz has large pillar like structures. Granite is a very common intrusive igneous rock that is found in the continental plates of the Earth's crust. This is granite Granite is a igneous rock made up of quartz, feldspar, and mica. Mica is a layered structured rock. Found as foliations in granite and other rocks. Used as a thermal and electrical insulator. Feldspar is another material found in granite. Although the amounts of feldspar are usually less than quartz it is still a significant amount of granite. Both types of Feldspar, alkaline and plagioclase are found in granite. Granite Granite has many uses but the most common uses is in counter tops. Its found in large veins and cut into slabs. Granite uses Granite Intrusive Igneous Feldspar Mica Quartz Granite is very widely used rock and has many unique characteristics to it. Granite

Granite

Transcript: It forms from the slow crystallization of magma below Earth’s surface.... Granite is composed mainly of quartz and feldspar with minor amounts of mica, amphiboles and other minerals. This mineral composition usually gives granite a red, pink, gray or white color with dark mineral grains visible throughout the rock. Igneous Rocks (Ganite) Granite rock is a light color igneous rock with grains large enough to be visible with an unaided eye.
