The type of rock that can be foliated and/or non-foliated is the Igneous rock.
Limestone is the parent of rock of non foliated metamorphic. This is a very old type of rock.
It has strips on the rock :)
Non foliated rocks, such as marble, form from limestone, a common type of sedimentary rock. Foliated rocks form from metamorphic or igneous rocks. Non Foliated rocks are more brittle than foliated rocks making them more susceptible to breakage.
Igneous rock (like pumice) does not normally display banding, layering, or flaky texture. Foliated vs. non-foliated as a descriptive term in rock identification is most often used in reference to metamorphic rock.
Pumice is a light and porous volcanic rock formed when glassy lava solidifies rapidly. Some pumice clasts are known to be foliated.
Marble is a completely non-foliated rock. lol
foliated
Non-foliated metamorphic, organic sedimentary, and extrusive igneous, respectively.
The metamorphic rock, slate, is considered foliated.
Foliated
Conglomerate is a non-folliated rock. It is a clastic sedimentary rock.

Bituminous coal is considered a sedimentary rock and therefore would not be foliated or non-foliated, terms which are used to describe metamorphic rock.
