There are 3 basic types of weathering. The easiest to understand is mechanical weathering, which produces clasts of rock/mineral which are smaller than the original, and of the same general composition. There are two basic processes: fracturing, which is like a hammer and produces angular clasts;

Weathering causes the disintegration of rock near the surface of the earth. Plant and animal life, atmosphere and water are the major causes of weathering. Weathering breaks down and loosens the surface minerals of rock so they can be transported away by agents ... There are two types of weathering: mechanical and chemical.

The interlocking and spacing of mineral grains controls the tendency towards weathering. Rocks with loosely interlocking mineral grains allow agents of chemical weathering to penetrate, thus speeding their decomposition.

Weathering is the gradual disintegration of rocks where they are. Erosion means the wearing away of a landscape. This involves transport. Weathering + dehydration (the lowering of the landscape)
