Rock that's an anagram of "tearing" (7)

I believe the answer is:

granite

(Other definitions for granite that I've seen before include "Igneous rock, generally composed of feldspar and mica and quartz" , "Hard stone from Tangier" , "A very hard rock from Tangier" , "Tearing (anag.)" , "Get rain (anag) - rock" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
