Geology
Muruny is mostly covered by metamorphic rocks from the Precambrian age. These rocks are of more recent origin and displays evidence of being altered by instance metamorphism process. This meta metamorphic rocks were formed when the preexisting rock were subjected to high temperature, intense pressure, and other chemical and physical process causing them to change their structure and composition. The most common metamorphic rocks in Muruny are gneisses. In addition, these rocks contain minerals such as hornblende, biotite, and quartz-muscovite gneisses.
In some parts of Muruny igneous rocks of intrusive origin are found on the surface. These igneous rocks are found on the surface due to erosion of older basement rock systems by chemical, physical, and biological processes.
