Most of the mineral grains of gneissose rocks are visible to the naked eye. Banding in this rock is a result of mineral segregation into separate, typically light- and dark-colored layers. Light-colored layer is usually composed of feldspars and quartz. Most important dark minerals are hornblende and biotite.

Gneiss is a metamorphic rock formed by changing schist, granite, or volcanic rocks through intense heat and pressure. Gneiss is foliated, which means that it has layers of lighter and darker minerals. These layers are of different densities and come about as a result of the intense pressure used to form gneiss.

The host rock for the disseminated graphite occurrences is a garnet-cordierite gneiss. The most common main minerals are quartz, plagioclase, garnet, cordierite and biotite, in places also orthopyroxene and potassium feldspar. Pyrrhotite is the dominating sulphide mineral.

gneiss and granitic gneiss is always less than 5%. Generally, sand with less than 5% of mica is considered to be suitable for civil engineering construction. Therefor, charnockite, and charnockitic gneiss and granitic gneiss rock quarries are suitable for supply of quarry dust to be used as an alternative for river sand.

The latter often consist of hard rocks such as granite or gneiss, but also soft rocks such as sandstone occur. Grinding grooves are also found in Skåne, in southern Sweden and in Finland. Astronomer Göran Henriksson dates a number of these grinding grooves to the Stone Age, between about 3300 BCE to about 2000 BCE, based on astronomical alignments, although his …

In archaeology, ground stone is a category of stone tool formed by the grinding of a coarse-grained tool stone, either purposely or incidentally.Ground stone tools are usually made of basalt, rhyolite, granite, or other cryptocrystalline and igneous stones whose coarse structure makes them ideal for grinding other materials, including plants and other stones.

In this research, grinding energy of selected rock samples collected from South West Nigeria was determined using comminution theory in order to evaluate suitability of rock for aggregate production. Bond Work Index (BWi), Aggregate Impact Value (AIV) and Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) of samples was characterized and correlated.

The rocks of the Outer Hebrides are the very oldest rocks to naturally surface in the United Kingdom with some in Barra well over 3 billion years old. Collectively most of the rock is classified as 'Lewisian Gneiss' (pronounced 'nice') which turns out not to be simple rock form, rather it is a product of varying ingredients, some ...
Details
Gneiss is a medium- to coarse-grained, semischistose metamorphic rock. It is characterized by alternating light and dark bands differing in mineral composition (coarser grained than schist). The lighter bands contain mostly quartz and feldspar, the darker often contain biotite, hornblende, garnet or graphite.
Details 
rock descriptions are medium-grained, hornblende-biotite schist, or fine- to medium-grained, garnetiferous, muscovite-chlorite-feldspar-quartz gneiss. The above classification can be abbreviated by the deletion of mineral names from the left to right as desired. The mineral type immediately preceding the rock name is the most diagnostic.

Villeneuve (2017) performed a total of 16 penetration tests in three different rock units in the Swiss Alps: schist (Figure 2), granite (Figure 3) and gneiss (Figure 4). Figure 4 also includes data for marble and granite from Yin et al. (2014) and Gong et al. (2007).
