The Density of Common Rocks and Minerals
This is measured either as a decimal between 0 and 1 or as a percentage. In crystalline rocks like granite, which have tight, interlocking mineral grains, porosity is normally quite low (less than 1 percent). On the other end of the spectrum is sandstone, with its large, individual sand grains. Its porosity can reach 10 percent to 35 percent.

Regional metamorphism is created from large geographically significant processes like plate tectonics. Contact metamorphism is created from an existing rock contacting a heat source like a plutonic intrusion.
Mineralogy of sandstones: Porosity and permeability
Fracture porosity forms during brittle failure of hard rock or cooling of lava flows. Fracture networks that are connected can provide pathways for fluid flow even when the host rock is impervious (e.g. granite, basalt, indurated sandstone).
