    Andesite is usually light to dark grey in colour, due to its content of hornblende or pyroxene minerals. [2] but can exhibit a wide range of shading. Darker andesite can be challenging to distinguish from basalt, but a common rule of thumb, used away from the laboratory, is that andesite has a color index less than 35. [9]
