1. Parameter A, Geology: General appraisal of geological structure on the basis of: a. Rock type origin (igneous, metamorphic, sedimentary). b. Rock hardness (hard, medium, soft, decomposed). c. Geologic structure (massive, slightly faulted/folded, moderately faulted/folded, intensely faulted/...
Grain size is an important characteristic of texture. It ranges from very fine to coarse. The metamorphic rock classification chart below may help you make sense of the many different types of rock.Classification of Metamorphic Rocks Name of Rock Parent Rock Texture Grain Size Notes Slate Shale...
rock nomenclature has expanded, schemes of classification have been constructed (1) to ensure that all scientists refer to a given rock type by the same name, (2) to enable geologists to compare one igneous rock with another, and (3) to provide a means for thinking about rocks in groups....
