"Most of the Grand Canyon's layers are made of igneous and metamorphic rocks."

Explanation:

• Igneous and metamorphic rocks:

If we analyze the formation of the Grand Canyons it will stretch us back in times to more then 6 millions years ago in the Arizona State,US. As, the structure of the grand canyons show and represents more then just beauty and the artistic work of the natural phenomenons.

But, the over structure of the Grand Canyons is composed of the igneous and metamorphic rocks, as these materials can not hold any structures of the ancients animals and plants.
