6.Is the rock coarse grained? (If the rock is coarse grained, most of
the rock is primarily made of crystals
that are as large, or larger, than a grain of rice. If you can see the
crystals without a magnifier, but
they are smaller than a grain of rice, the rock is medium grained.)
O A. The rock is made of coarse crystal grains. It has no layers, and
is dark colored.
B. The rock is made of medium crystal grains. It has no layers,
and is dark colored.
O c. Descriptions are not aplicable in the rock sample.
