About Pedra parideira

Natural Monuments, Interesting Places, Natural, Nature Reserves

Pedras Parideiras são um fenómeno geológico raro, um tipo de pedras que brotam de uma rocha-mãe, um bloco nodular de origem granítica com 1000 x 600 m, daí se chamarem Parideiras. Os nódulos de 1 a 12 cm de diâmetro com formas discóides e biconvexas são compostos pelos mesmos elementos mineralógica do granito, a camada externa é composta por biotite e a interna possui um núcleo de quartzo e feldspato potássico. Estes nódulos ao se desincrustarem dos núcleos da rocha-mãe por termoclastia/crioclastia deixam uma camada externa em baixo relevo nos núcleos da rocha-mãe e espalham-se à volta desta.
