Granite is an igneous rock, meaning that it is formed by the solidification of molten rock. It is distinguished from other igneous rocks by its chemical composition, and by a relatively large crystal size. Since a very low cooling is necessary to produce large crystals, granite is always an intrusive formation. (This means that the cooling occurs underground. Molten rock which reaches the surface of the Earth will cool much too quickly to produce a similar texture.) 3, record 1, English, - Bramsche%20intrusive%20formation

La carbonatite d'Oka est une formation intrusive formée par un événement volcanique souterrain survenu il y a près de 95 millions d'années. Cette formation est associée à l'événement géologique qui a conduit à la mise en place des intrusions montérégiennes dont les vestiges sont une série de montagnes isolées dans les basses-terres du Saint-Laurent et dont fait partie le Mont-Royal. 2, record 1, French, - formation%20intrusive%20de%20Bramsche
