well in my believe you can think something else but weathering does NOT affect minerals!! :P

Chemical weathering
Cracks and mineral composition of rocks affet the rate weathering. Smaller rocks with more available surface area weather more rapidly. Rocks with calcium carbonates weather more rapidly than rocks made of granite......:-)
Chemical weathering affects rocks rain, wind or ice . Chemical weathering is the process that changes the composition ( the inside) of rocks on the earth surface.
Weathering is the alteration of rocks to more stable material from their exposure to the agents of air, water, and organic fluids. ... Mechanical weathering includes processes that fragment and disintegrate rocks into smaller pieces without changing the rock's mineral composition.
Chemical Weathering
The rocks will into pieces.
How do cracks affect the rate of weathering
The rocks will into pieces.
Mostly death
