The metamorphic rock, slate, is considered foliated.
Slate is a foliated metamorphic rock.
Slate is a foliated (displaying layers or banding) metamorphic rock, and its parent rock was shale or mudstone. Marble is a non-foliated metamorphic rock (no layers or bands) and its parent rock was limestone.
Yes, slate is a foliated metamorphic rock formed from the sedimentary rock shale.
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.

Coal is a nonfoliated metamorphic rock. It does not have a planar arrangement of minerals and lacks the distinct layering seen in foliated rocks like slate or schist.
Sandstone is a non-foliated rock, which means it does not have a layered or banded texture like foliated rocks such as slate or schist. Sandstone forms from the compression and cementation of sand particles, resulting in a granular or sometimes gritty texture.

Soapstone is a metamorphic rock that is typically non-foliated, meaning it lacks the layered structure seen in foliated rocks like slate or schist. Instead, soapstone has a uniform texture and appearance due to its high talc content.
Slate, gneiss, schist. Metamorphic rocks. Just the foliated ones.
