Granite

2022
This chapter discusses how granite is the geologic backbone of the Sierra Nevada. The discovery of photosynthesis by primitive microorganisms had consequences: it transformed Earth's early atmosphere into an oxygenated, caustic pall that could weather rocks into dust with unprecedented efficiency. Dust is where granite begins.

Granites

Geology Today, 2023
Granites are coarse‐grained igneous intrusive rocks, which, although present in most tectonic settings, are most characteristic of continental crust. While basalts are the most abundant volcanic rocks, granites are the most abundant intrusive rocks. On the scale of the Solar System, while basalts are ubiquitous, granites seem to be restricted to the ...

I come bearing most hearty greetings and good wishes from my Society to yours.

Friction on a granite to granite interface

International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences & Geomechanics Abstracts, 1989
Direct shear tests were conducted on a granite to granite interface for the purpose of tracing the evolution of frictional resistance as the initially smooth and polished surface wears during continuing shearing displacement. At the moment when sliding on the freshly manufactured interface starts (first slip), the friction angle is very low, between 15°
