What mineral is common in schist and gneiss but not common is slate and phyllite?

The mineral common in schist and gneiss but not common in slate and phyllite is garnet. Garnet typically forms in higher-grade metamorphic rocks such as schist and gneiss due to the increased temperature and pressure conditions necessary for its formation.

Is slate and gneiss the same thing?
