A quartzite.
A phaneritic texture.
instrusive Rock
Coarse large grained crystals.
Extrusive igneous rock consists of mineral crystals that are not observable with the naked eye. Obsidian is an extrusive igneous rock (volcanic glass) where there technically are no mineral crystals.
A foliated metamorphic rock forms when crystals combine and form visible bands
Min. A $1.00 A Lb. Depending on what kind of crystal is in the geode, amythyst, chalcedony, ect... Find out what kind(s) of crystal are in it first.
A phaneritic texture.
A porphyritic texture.

instrusive Rock
Coarse large grained crystals.
Intrusive or granite.
Geodes are rocks that are lined or filled with crystals. Pegmatites are rock formations that often exhibit extremely large crystals. Just a note--all rocks are composed of mineral crystals, with few exceptions. The crystals in some, however are just too small to see.
Intrusive rock normally has visible crystals. Extrusive igneous rock has small crystals. A black extrusive igneous rock with small crystals could be basalt.
The size of the crystals is a function of the rate of cooling of the molten rock. The faster the molten rock cools, the smaller the crystals will be.
NO the faster a rock cools the smaller the crystals are.
The rock with crystals inside in can be igneous rock, but no, idk about the minerals.
