FAQs
Q1: What is GNEISS?
A1: If any metamorphic rock shows a gneissose structure, Gneiss is the name given to that particular object. Physical description of the objects is given as follows:
- Diagnostic character: Foliation present.
- Color: grey and pink but generally pale coloured
- Grain size: medium to coarse grained
- Texture and Structure: Generally equigranular but sometimes orphyroblastic. Folidation is also seen. The minerals occur as alternating white and black colour bands.
- Different Minerals present: Feldspars and quartz usually make up the bulk of a gneiss. In addition, garnet, rarely pyroxenes occur in such bands. The rock appears as dark or black coloured bands, if hornblende and biotite are present. The other minerals which may also occasionally occur in gneisses are chlorite, sillimanite, kyanite, staurolite, talc, serpentine etc
Q2: What are the long lasting building materials?
A2: Wood, Brick, Stone, Concrete, Iron and Steel
Q3: How blasting powder and dynamite differ?
A3: Difference between blasting powder and dynamite differ are given in the table:
Item | Blasting Powder | Dynamite |
Cost | Generally less expensive, cheap | High cost. It is about 5 times than that of blasting powder |
Destructive power | Very weak destructive power | Very strong. It is 6 times than that of blasting powder |
Efficiency | 0.40 m3 ( normal in case of 1N powder is used ) | 0.60 m3 ( 11/2 times thanblasting powder if 1N powder is used ) ( 11/2 times than |
Usage | It is used for ordinary type | It is used for quarrying work, mining operations and tunneling |
Q4: What are the typical building materials and reasons for their wastage?
A4:

Q5: What is Liquid oxygen?
A5: Liquid Oxygen is oxygen in liquid state. It is stored in a special container. It is comparatively cheap and used for blasting on a large scale for mining operations.
