Typically, higher numbers for Blaine Fineness relate to smaller particle size. Think of it as spheres, the smaller you make your sphere the more surface area there is compared to volume, in other words a smaller space contains more surface area. Additionally, the surface structure will affect the fineness without affecting particle size.

Blaine Fineness is measured in m^2/ g, this means the mass of sample used will affect the fineness. A denser material may have more surface area but also has a higher mass to achieve it.
