No, kyanite is an indicator of high pressure metamorphism.
Yes! since index minerals form at specific pressure and temperature conditions hence when they are encountered or observed in a certain metamorphic rock they serve to indicate the condition by which the rock formed.They can tell whether it is a high grade or low grade metamorphism.e.g Andalusite mineral indicate high grade metamorphism associated with high temperature.
"Tuff", a rock made up of volcanic ash and other things, is not a mineral, so it has no hardness index or luster.
color, refractive index, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, cleavage, density, fluorescence, radioactivity, reaction with acids or other chemicals, chemical composition, etc.
A synthetic diamond is a mineral made of carbon, and possesses all the same properties as a mined diamond. It has a cubic crystalline structure, a refractive index of 2.42, dispersion of 0.044, mohs hardness of 10 and a density of 3.52.
Both andesite and diorite are igneous rocks with an intermediate color index. Diorite; however, is intrusive and phaneritic, whereas andesite is aphanitic and extrusive. Andesite is said to be the extrusive equivalent of diorite. Diorite is made up of plagioclase feldspar and ferromagnesian mineral crystals, mainly amphibole. Contrarily, andesite may resemble rhyolite, meaning it presents a need for microscopic examination to see its mineral crystals. The two have a composition of plagioclase feldspar and amphibole, but it is much more difficult to detect in andesite.
kyanite and sillimanite
Sillimanite is an index mineral for high temperature and variable pressure metamorphism.
An index mineral is used in geology to determine the degree of metamorphism a rock has experienced.

Grade Point Average (GPA) is the average of your grades using various point scales. Grade Point Index (GPI) is actually an eligibility index that is used for admissions. Elibility Index or GPI calculation: You can calculate your eligibility index by multiplying your grade point average by 800 and adding your combined score on the SAT, using the combined scores earned on the critical reading and math sections. If you took the ACT, multiply your grade point average by 200 and add ten times the ACT composite score. ACT Writing score is not considered in the composite score.
