The formation of plutons is a geological process that involves the slow cooling of magma beneath the Earth's surface.

Erosion, caused by weathering and the movement of water, wind, and ice, can further expose these plutons.

This magma solidifies into igneous rock, which forms the basis of plutons.

Plutons can be found at different levels within the Earth's crust, depending on where the magma was originally located.

Over time, tectonic activity can cause the Earth's crust to uplift, exposing previously buried plutons.
