Index declaration in the columns section of the `CREATE` query.
```sql
INDEX index_name expr TYPE type(...) GRANULARITY granularity_value
```
For tables from the `*MergeTree` family data skipping indices can be specified.
These indices aggregate some information about specified expression on blocks, which consist of `granularity_value` granules,
then these aggregates is used in `SELECT` queries for reducing amount of data to read from disk by skipping big blocks of data where `where` query can not be satisfied.

* `minmax` Stores extremes of specified expression (if expression is `tuple`, then it stores extremes for each element of `tuple`), uses stored info for skipping blocks of data like primary key.
