Due to the limitation of spatial and temporal scale of molecular dynamics, usually the spatial scale is less than 1 mm. Therefore, know the single crystal size of common minerals, for example, granite, feldspar, silica is of crucial importance.
Dear Mr. Zhaoyang:
Given that you are not referring to phenocrysts in porphyritic granites I suggest to use the “Atlas of igneous rock and their textures” (W.S. MacKenzie et al. 1982). There you will mind micrographs of granites and affiliated igneous rocks supplemented with a scale based upon which you can judge by yourself what the size of the rock-forming minerals is.
With kind regards
