Meth whatever you do dont smoke or snort it
No Schist is not a crystal, but it is composed of minerals.
d. on the surface of the Earth
Large, pointy-edged rocks and minerals cemented together.
Because rocks are made up of minerals but minerals aren't made up of rocks. Rocks are made up of little bits of many minerals. An example is granite. You know how it has speckles in it? Those are a bunch of mineral grains mixed up to form the rock granite.
How shiny a rock or crystal is.
No Schist is not a crystal, but it is composed of minerals.
minerals get its crystal shape by the heating and pressure from rock
you can see the different bits and pieces of the rock

Generally an ore is a rock composed of various minerals. A crystal is normally a pure or nearly pure variety of a mineral. Ores are refined to extract one or more specific minerals which exist in the rock. The less desirable minerals are considered waste.
By weathering and erosion by the time and day
Metamorphic crystal growth refers to the process by which new crystals form in response to changes in temperature, pressure, or chemical environment within a rock undergoing metamorphism. This process can result in the development of different crystal types and structures compared to the original minerals present in the rock.
No, minerals are not rocks. Minerals are one or more elements stacked together which forms a crystal structure. A rock is composed of one or more minerals.
Granite is a type of igneous rock that is composed of large crystals of minerals like quartz, feldspar, and mica. The crystals in granite can vary in size, ranging from small to very large, depending on the specific conditions under which the rock formed.
A crystal-lined rock is called a geode. Geodes are hollow rocks that contain sparkling crystals inside, formed by minerals depositing in the cavities of the rock over time.
Granite does not belong to any crystal structure group because granite is a rock, not a mineral, and only minerals can be grouped by crystal form or shape. Minerals are naturally occurring solids which form the earth and make up its rocks. Minerals develop in predictable geometric patterns called crystals. The term used to describe a crystal's general shape is habit. Some examples of crystal habit groups are cubic, prismatic, tabular, etc. Minerals are sometimes called the building blocks of rocks because rocks are usually made up of 2 or more minerals which formed together in the same space, often without enough room for recognizable crystal formation. The minerals involved and the environment they formed in will determine the type of rock they make. Granite is a rock formed underground from cooled magma (lava that never reached the earth's surface) containing the minerals quartz, feldspar, mica and others. Each individual mineral in a rock belongs to a particular crystal group, but not the rock itself.
There are a couple examples. Coal is a rock, but it is organic and so does not contain minerals. Obsidian and pumice are both varieties of volcanic glass. Since they lack a crystal structure, they are not composed of minerals
