Earth’s Core is still molten and therefore Earth has not yet become a solid mass.
Granite is 20-60% quartz (SiO2), 10-50% plagioclase (Na,Ca)(Si,Al)4O8 and 20-60% alkalai feldspars (K)(Si,Al)4O8(orthoclase, microcline and sanidine, albite, anorthoclase).
Granite is formed in plutons of magma in the Earth’s crust that cool over long periods. The covering rock and dirt is then eroded to reveal the granite. The Earth became a solid mass about 4.6billion years ago.
