Granite
Gneiss rocks are products of metamorphism while granite rocks are derived from igneous activity.
Gneiss
a banded texture
The texture defines the gneiss. If it varies, it's not gneiss. I'm studying the same thing! -8th Grader! :D
Both gneiss and migmatite are late-stage, high grade metamorphic rocks.
Yes, the gneiss rocks are usually crystalline. The gneiss rocks are foliated or banded metamorphic rocks that have the same composition as the granite.
Gneiss rocks are products of metamorphism while granite rocks are derived from igneous activity.
A gneiss is a metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rocks are created by the alteration of rocks by heat and pressure. Therefore, a gneiss may be created from an igneous rock in which case it would be called an orthogneiss.
They are both metamorphic rocks.

Gneiss
Granite and gneiss are both types of rocks that are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten magma or rock. Gneiss is actually a metamorphic rock that is derived from granite through the process of metamorphism. Both rocks exhibit visible mineral grains and are commonly used in construction and landscaping due to their durability.
Gneiss contains the minerals mica, quartz, feldspar, amphibole, garnet, and pyroxene.
Gneiss is a foilated metamorphic rock.
Gneiss is neither limestone nor sandstone. Gneiss is a metamorphic rock that forms from the transformation of pre-existing rocks such as granite or sedimentary rocks under high heat and pressure. The resulting gneiss typically exhibits banded layers of minerals.
