Carvings in granite at Threave gardens, Castle Douglas, Scotland. Note at top right of the boulder is an interface with a black rock called dolerite. Dolerite is the same chemistry as basalt. The only difference is that basalt comes out of the ground as lava, but dolerite stays underground. So, the two magmas were next to each other in the magma chamber. The granite was probably there first and the dolerite cut through it.
