Diorite results from the partial melting of a mafic rock above a subduction zone. It is found in volcanic arcs, and in cordilleran mountain building, such as in the Andes Mountains.
Diorite is formed <u><em>deep within the Earth's crust from cooling magma that never made it to the surface</em></u>. It usually occurs as quite small intrusions often associated with larger intrusions like granite. Slow cooling produces the large crystals.
Mount McKinley is the tallest US mountain and Mount Everest is the tallest southwest asian mountain, therefore the tallest mountains in southwest asia are taller than the tallest mountains in the US
The Coriolis effect is the direct result of the earth's constant motion around its axis and in which he objects are deflected towards the right in the northern hemisphere and to left in the southern hemisphere. It is also called as an initial or fictitious force with reference to clockwise rotation.
