Aphanite: Overview & Common rocks that can be aphanitic

Aphanites (adj. aphanitic; from Ancient Greek αφανης (aphanḗs) 'invisible') are igneous rocks that are so fine-grained that their component mineral crystals are not visible to the naked eye (in contrast to phanerites, in which the crystals are visible to the unaided eye), however visible using magnification (in contrast to Cryptocrystallines, in which…
