I am trying to find out what the other two types of rock besides gneiss form the Matterhorn. Gneiss is a metamorphic rock. That's a nice piece of gneiss!
Gneiss may come from either granite or schist.
Granite and Gneiss are both rocks.
The texture of gneiss is coarse
None
Bearing in mind that Gneiss is not a mineral, and that it is very hard, Gneiss does not leave a streak, but scratches the plate (don't try it - this is not how you classify Gneiss). Gneiss is classified by its Gneissose Banding - distinct bands of light Feldspar/Quartz and dark Micas. It is also classified by the extent of metamorphism which has taken place.
Gneiss is foliated.
