PORPHYRITIC GRANITE

Porphyritic Granite originated from Tampin, Negeri Sembilan, a distinctive igneous rock dating back to the Late Triassic (230 - 200 million years ago). It can be characterised by its texture featuring larger crystals known as phenocrysts embedded within a finer-grained matrix called the groundmass....
