Photo ID: GC_Pima4615.jpg South Rim of the Grand Canyon from Pima Point (6,700 ft high) showing the Grand Canyon's four geologic layers: FIRST LIGHT GRAY LAYER in the foreground includes white Kaibab Formation (270 million years ago), gray Toroweap formation (273 m.y.a.) and yellow Coconino Sandstone (275 m.y.a.); below in the foreground, SECOND RED LAYER includes rust Hermit Shale Formation (280 m.y.a.), red of the Supai Group (315-285 m.y.a.); THIRD DARK GRAY LAYER includes light gray Temple Butte Formation (385 m.y.a.), dark gray Muav Limestone (505 m.y.a.) and light gray Bright Angel Shale (515 m.y.a.), and, in the trench in the right top corner, FOURTH BLACK ROCK LAYER at river level (2,450 ft high above sea level) includes Vishnu Basement Rocks (2 billion years ago) which are from the North American tectonic plate that collided with another tectonic plate creating heat and pressure that melted the rock into dark metamorphic rock squeezing it up through cracks in the earth to become the basement of the Grand Canyon. THE GRAND CANYON BEGAN when the Colorado River started carving through the rock layers 5 or 6 million years ago. It gets its green color from minerals in the water.
