Andesite is a type of volcanic rock that typically has a density ranging from about 2.5 to 3.0 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³). This density can vary based on its mineral composition and porosity. Generally, andesite is heavier than many sedimentary rocks but lighter than denser igneous rocks like basalt.
No. Andesite is a volcanic rock.
yes I think
10 mm
Both are igneous rocks of intermediate coposition.
Volcanic rocks are extrusive igneous rocks.
No. Andesite is a volcanic rock.
Andesite is not any age in particular. Some deposites of andesite may be hundreds of millions of years old. However, since andesite is volcanic, some andesite rocks may only be minutes old.
No. Andesite is an extrusive igneous rock.
No. It is volcanic. The plutonic equivalent of andesite is diorite.
Yes. Andesite is an extrusive igneous rock.
Yes. Andesite is the extrusive equivalent of diorite
No. Foliation is a term that applies to metamorphic rocks. Andesite is igneous.
Andesite rocks are Igneous rocks. They are jagged and rough, and come from cooled magma.
The composition of the rock will determine whether it is a rhyolite or an andesite.
Andesite is a type of igneous rock that can form both intrusively (inside the Earth's crust) and extrusively (on the Earth's surface). When andesite forms intrusively, it typically cools slowly and can create large crystals.
Andesite is an extrusive igneous rock found on or near volcanoes that contain intermediate magmas.
The texture of Andesite rock is fine-grained and it Extrusive plus it is an igneous rock .
