Evolution Scientists are not unanimous regarding the origin of granite. Some scientists are of the opinion that it originated from liquid stones or magma gradually becoming solid by freezing. Some of these consider it to be formed from granite magma and some from basaltic magma. Some scientists are of the opinion that granites have been formed by the selective action of granite-forming emanations of pre-existing rocks, or by granite-forming agents, which Sederholm has named Aykari.
