The dome of Stone Mountain is almost entirely composed of medium to coarsegrained granite. The mineralogy of the granite consists of quartz, alkali feldspar, plagioclase feldspar, and biotite and muscovite mica. According to McCarter and others (2001) the Stone Mountain pluton is composite in nature, having "at least twelve crosscutting phases."
