The general Ganister and Amphibolite definition can be stated as: A ganister is a hard, fine-grained quartzose sandstone or orthoquartzite which is basically used in the manufacture of silica brick typically used to line furnaces and is a type of sedimentary rocks.. On the other hand, Amphibolite can be defined as a granular metamorphic rock which mainly consist of hornblende and plagioclase.

Along with Ganister and Amphibolite definition, know more about the etymology of Ganister and Amphibolite. Etymology of Ganister and Amphibolite gives information about origin and formation of a particular rock. Know more about Formation of Ganister and Formation of Amphibolite. The etymology of Ganister is From gan′is-ter i.e a hard, close-grained siliceous stone, often forming the stratum which underlies a coal-seam while that of Amphibolite is From gan′is-ter i.e a hard, close-grained siliceous stone, often forming the stratum which underlies a coal-seam. The process of formation of rocks defines the class of rock. All the rocks in a class are formed by similar processes. Ganister belongs to Sedimentary Rocks while Amphibolite belongs to Metamorphic Rocks. The sub-class, group and other categories of Ganister and Amphibolite are listed below.
