Peterhead Granite
The tomb of Mary Ann Jones is made of Peterhead granite from
the Northeast of Scotland. Granite is an igneous rock, which
means that it was formed from molten rock that solidified
when it cooled.
You can see other types of rock in the granite that the molten
rock captured as it forced its way to the earth's surface.
