Although we may consider deriving a proper name for a rock as an exercise in
finding the right pigeon-hole, we are much better served by considering a good
name as a concise way of imparting information about a rock
•Granofels(ic) texture is then a texture characterized by a lack of preferred
orientation
•An outdated alternative to granofels is granulite, but this term is now used to
denote very high grade rocks (whether foliated or not), and is not endorsed here as
a synonym for granofels.
