How did that giant boulder end up on top? I don't think that Australia ever had any glaciers.

As per the literature, the Granite Arch is a natural rock formation that was created through geological processes over millions of years. Granite Arch formations typically result from the weathering and erosion of granite rocks. Here is a general explanation of how such arches are formed: 1. Formation of Granite: Initially, the area would have been subject to geological processes that led to the formation of granite rocks. Granite is an igneous rock composed mainly of quartz, feldspar, and mica. 2. Weathering: Over time, various weathering agents, such as wind, rain, and temperature changes, begin to break down the granite. This process involves the physical and chemical breakdown of the rock. 3. Erosion: As the weathered granite is broken down, erosion carries away the loosened particles. Water erosion, especially, plays a significant role in shaping the landscape. 4. Differential Erosion: Granite often has variations in its composition, with some parts being more resistant to erosion than others. This leads to the development of uneven surfaces and, eventually, the creation of arches and other distinctive rock formations. 5. Natural Arch Formation: In the case of Granite Arch, the specific shape of the arch is likely the result of differential erosion acting on the granite rock, creating a bridge-like structure. Hope these helps, thanks!
