How do two igneous rocks have the same mineral composition but different textures?
The texture of an igneous rock refers to the size of its mineral crystals. If the common magma of both igneous rocks has experienced differences in cooling rates due to depth, they will have different textures. Slow cooling produces large crystals, and quick cooling produces small crystals. Granite and rhyolite are two igneous rocks sharing the same mineral composition, but having undergone different rates of magma cooling due to depth at solidification.

The displacement between two bodies of rock is called the fault.
