  3. Basalt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basalt

    The average density of basalt is 2.9 g/cm 3, compared, for example, to granite’s typical density of 2.7 g/cm 3. [16] The viscosity of basaltic magma is relatively low—around 10 4 to 10 5 cP—similar to the viscosity of ketchup, but that is still several orders of magnitude higher than the viscosity of water, which is about 1 cP).

  4. Granite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granite

    Occasionally some individual crystals (phenocrysts) are larger than the groundmass, in which case the texture is known as porphyritic. A granitic rock with a porphyritic texture is known as a granite porphyry. Granitoid is a general, descriptive field term for lighter-colored, coarse-grained igneous rocks.

  5. Calc-alkaline magma series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calc-alkaline_magma_series

    The calc-alkaline magma series is one of two main subdivisions of the subalkaline magma series, the other subalkaline magma series being the tholeiitic series. A magma series is a series of compositions that describes the evolution of a mafic magma, which is high in magnesium and iron and produces basalt or gabbro, as it fractionally crystallizes to become a felsic magma, which is low in ...

    This is 17% lower than the earlier wider used one based on non measured values of 3.47 kJ · kg−1· °C−1. The contribution of the muscle to the specific heat of the body is approximately 47%, and the contribution of the fat and skin is approximately 24%.

    Marble Slab, which began as a single unit operation called Cones & Cream, [3] was founded in Houston by chefs Sigmund Penn and Tom LePage in 1983. They were inspired by Steve Herrell of Herrell's Ice Cream in Boston, who pioneered the mixing approach to ice cream toppings. [4]

    Some examples of felsic rocks include granite and rhyolite, while examples of mafic rocks include gabbro and basalt. [ 1 ] According to the Encyclopædia Britannica , color indices, 0–50 are felsic, 50–90 are mafic, and 90–100 are ultramafic. [ 6 ]

  9. Alkali feldspar granite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_feldspar_granite

    Alkali feldspar granite, some varieties of which are called 'red granite', [1] is a felsic igneous rock and a type of granite rich in the mineral potassium feldspar (K-spar). It is a dense rock with a phaneritic texture. The abundance of K-spar gives the rock a predominant pink to reddish hue; peppered with minor amounts of black minerals. [2] [3]
