Abstract The type and heterogeneity of minerals control the initiation, aggregation, and expansion of rock blasting cracks and significantly affect the rock failure process. Granite was used to investigate the law of rock cracking under impact loading at the scale of mineral particles, and a two-dimensional grain-based model (GBM) was developed using PFC based on CT) scanning and laboratory mechanical tests. The GBM’s reliability was validated using laboratory uniaxial compression tests and numerical simulations. The specimen failure modes and evolution of microcracks during rock impact were analyzed, as well as the impact cracks’ characteristics under various impact velocities. The findings show that the GBM can simulate the microfracture behavior of several types of mineral fractures during rock impact. The evolution of granite cracks under impact loading can be divided into three stages: rapid growth, decreased growth, and gradual stabilization. The impact failure cracks of the samples were primarily tensile and intragranular. Granite’s tensile and shear fractures and intergranular and intergranular cracks of granite exhibit various trends with varying impact velocities. The GBM is viable for researching the dynamics of crystalline rocks and is a powerful tool for exploring the dynamic characteristics of rocks at the mineral particle level.
