The weathering of the granite mainly occurs at the fracture and the projecting portion of the rock, the weathered face appears like the perfectly round shape which makes the weathered rock tend to be the shape of sphere in final. After the uneven collapse, the exposed fracture face of the granite suffers the weathering and erosion. Due to the difference of weathering speed, it sculpts the modeling stone that is like the face of the Buddha which is why it is named as the Buddha.
