Texture refers to the size of the mineral crystals which comprise a rock.
Rocks and Minerals can be identified and distinguished by their distinctive texture, structure, and chemistry.
Many igneous rocks can be identified by the position of their minerals.
A coarse grained texture, referred to as a phaneritic texture, will be the resultant igneous rock texture. The slower the magma cools the more time minerals have to crystallize and thus grow bigger.
silicate minerals and non silicate minerals
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock composed of sand-sized minerals and rock grains. Most sandstone is composed of quartz and feldspar. As far as touching it goes, yes, it is like dirt. The texture feels like sandpaper, and kind of dusty.
How minerals can form some rocks, the color, and texture
minerals differ in appearance and texture
Foliated texture
A schistose texture.
The metamorphic rock texture that has alternating bands of light and dark minerals is called foliation. This texture results from the alignment of minerals due to directional pressure during metamorphism. Schist is a common type of foliated metamorphic rock.
Color, texture, streak
It depends on what texture pack your using i recomend lookoing on Minecraft.net
Andesite typically has a fine-grained texture with a mix of various minerals such as plagioclase feldspar and amphibole. It can appear as a dark gray to black rock with speckles of white or light gray minerals.

Granite has a phaneritic texture. This means that it has crystals 1-10 mm. It was formed from slow cooling, viscous magma, and/or good nucleation. Crystalline. Coarse-grained. Crystals visible without magnification.
Yes, minerals in a rock can change the way they look through processes like weathering, erosion, and metamorphism. These processes can alter the color, texture, and composition of the minerals in the rock, leading to changes in its overall appearance.
