| Porphyroblastic texture   This is an andalusite porphyroblast with poikiloblastic texture. Also note how the foliation (oriented roughly N-S in this view) is wrapped around the left and right corners of this grain, suggesting synkinematic growth of the andalusite porphyroblast. Contrast with porophyroclastic texture. | UNC sample NM-1 | |
