Gneiss typically has low porosity, usually ranging from about 1% to 5%. This is due to its metamorphic nature, characterized by tightly interlocking mineral grains that result from high pressure and temperature conditions. The low porosity means that gneiss generally has limited capacity to hold water or other fluids compared to more porous rocks like sandstone or limestone.
