The water and gases that are dissolved in magma eventually start to bubble out as the magma rises nearer to the surface.
High temperature fractional crystallization of relatively water poor granite magmas may produce single alkali feldspar granite and lower temperature crystallization of relatively water rich magma may produce two feldspar granite.
To form granite magma must first cool underground.
Granite is formed by the solidification of magma under the earth s surface.
At this point magma is ready for the runaway process that leads to eruption.
Since the time required to form granite is rather long it is both a strong and valuable stone.
Once we have arrived we will begin the process of either a digital laser template or making an accurate pattern of the areas where the stone will be installed.
This is an extremely slow process.

If magma reaches the earth s surface and then solidifies it forms extrusive or volcanic igneous rock such as rhyolite or basalt.
