fine grained or coarse grained
Slate typically does not have abundant coarse-grained mica in it. Mica is more commonly found in other metamorphic rocks such as schist and gneiss. Slate is formed from the low-grade metamorphism of shale or mudstone, resulting in a fine-grained, foliated rock without abundant coarse-grained minerals like mica.
Granite is a coarse grained igneous rock without Pyroxene.
A peridotite is a dense, coarse-grained igneous rock
Shale is actually fine-grained, composed of very small particles such as clay and silt that have been compacted over time. It often has a smooth, layered appearance due to the arrangement of these tiny particles.
shale is fine grained
Sovite is a coarse grained carbonatite rock. Shale is a sedimentary rock.
Yes. Exactly, they do have both, fine grained and coarse grained rocks.
fine grained or coarse grained
Shale rock typically has a fine-grained texture, with layers that are thin and compacted. It can feel smooth to the touch due to the small particle size, and can easily break apart into thin sheets or flakes.

Metamorphic rock can be coarse grained or fine grained.
Coarse
Limestone can be both coarse-grained and fine-grained, depending on its composition and how it formed. Coarse-grained limestone typically contains larger mineral grains visible to the naked eye, while fine-grained limestone has smaller mineral grains that are not easily seen without magnification.
Visible crystals or grains would be referred to as a coarse grained texture.
