Shale can be used as a filler in paints, plastics, and roofing cements, and ground shale can be used as a replacement for clay in the manufacture of bricks. It is a sedimentary rock which is grey. Katie is a star!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shale is used as filler in paint, plastic, roofing cement; as raw material for bricks; as landscaping and driveway material, and in some cases as a source of oil.
Shale is used as a new source of oil. Shale is also used as filler in roofing cement, paint, plastic, or as raw materials for bricks. Shale is a sedimentary rock.
Shale can be used as a filler in paint products. It may also be used to create a driveway or as a source of oil.
shale is smooth and it is formed by hardening of clay so it is used to make bricks,tiles,plastics,cement etc.
It is just natural gas (methane) and so has the same uses, burning to generate electricity, powering vehicles, heating buildings and fueling gas stoves for cooking.
used as a gravel for driveways
Shale can also be used in the manufacture of plastics and roofing cement.
Shale is a sedimentary rock formed from extremely fine grains of mud. They are typically about 0.004 mm in diameter.
Shale is ground up and added to water and additional ingredients to create a highly viscous brick-making material. Shale is a sedimentary rock that has a high clay mineral content. The clay minerals will vitrify into a hard durable material when heated properly.
no shale is not magnetic
metamorphic rocks change form after being subjected to certain climates and humidity. Shale make up 60 per cent of the sedimentary rocks and metamorphism in shale is very common with the biggest diversity. Shale most commonly becomes slate.
shale
Shale rocks turn into clay. The pressure make shale into clay.
You don't make oil from shale, you extract oil from shale. The shale acts like a sponge, sometimes the shale is so porous that the oil can be squeezed or sucked out, otherwise it can be extracted by crushing and heating the shale.
Slate and shale have the same make-up. Slate is formed from sedimentary shale by pressure and heat. Wet shale has the same smell that wet slate has.
Shale can also be used in the manufacture of plastics and roofing cement.
The word "shale" originated from the Old English word "scealu," meaning shell or husk. It is likely derived from the Proto-Germanic word "skalΕ" which means "to split" or "to divide." Shale refers to a fine-grained sedimentary rock composed of consolidated clay or mud.
Shale in general is the most abundant of stratified rocks. One of the most popular forms of shale used for building roads is called Marcellus Shale. When this clay shale is nearly pure it is known as argillaceous. When it contains a lot of sand it is arenaceous. You will find that shale varies in color, reddish, very black, or grey. Shale is used mainly for top dressing on roads. To have a good road base slate is recommended.
Shale oil is an oil distilled from shales and used as fuel
tons
clayUsually clay. Kaolin, shale, and minerals are also used to make bricks. If u only use clay it will not be that strong to build a house or something big.
the similarities between slate and shale is that they used to be brother and sister but they broke up and now they hate eachother
paint, bricks,plastics and rofing cement.
