Magmatism induced by continental rifting just prior to and in the Cambrian Period produced the granites and rhyolites (the red rocks), gabbroic rocks, anorthosites, and diabases (the black rocks). 2. Subsidence resulted in burial by sandstones and limestone (the light-colored rocks) during the early Paleozoic. 3.
