Coarse grain/ phaneritic texture (intrusive/plutonic rocks) - large, visible mineral grains. Fine grain/ aphanitic - small mineral grains, barely seen or microscopic. Porphyritic - large crystals surrounded by much smaller grains. Volcanic Glass - amorphous (random arrangements), e.g., pumice, obsidian, and volcanic ash
