Granite has a grainy appearance and can be pink or varying shades of gray, depending upon its chemical and mineral make-up. The rock is usually found in large deposits; for example, those that form large massifs or tors. Limestone is mainly white, although it may be tinted by impurities.

Answer:

Granite has a grainy appearance and can be pink or varying shades of gray, depending upon its chemical and mineral make-up. The rock is usually found in large deposits; for example, those that form large massifs or tors. Limestone is mainly white, although it may be tinted by impurities. The presence of iron oxide, for example, gives it a brownish or yellowish tint, and carbon can give it a blue, black or gray hint. Although often hidden from view, when bands of limestone do emerge from the Earth's surface, it is often in spectacular style. Famous rocky outcrops of limestone include Malham Cove in North Yorkshire, U.K., and the Bridal Veil Falls in Utah.
