Is marble foliated or non foliated?
Marble is a non-foliated metamorphic rock, meaning it does not have visible layers or banding. It is formed from the recrystallization of limestone under high heat and pressure.
What rock type can be extrusive and intrusive?

What are the main sub categories of the metamorphic rock?
The main subcategories of metamorphic rock are foliated (such as schist and gneiss) and non-foliated (such as marble and quartzite). Foliated rocks have layers or bands due to the alignment of mineral grains, while non-foliated rocks do not have a layered structure.
Is bituminous coal foliated or non-foliated?
Bituminous coal is a non-foliated rock. It is a sedimentary rock formed from the compaction and alteration of plant material, which does not exhibit any foliation or layering like metamorphic rocks do.
What determines whether a metamorphic is foliated or non- foliated?
The presence of aligned minerals in the rock determines if it is foliated or non-foliated. Foliated metamorphic rocks have minerals that are arranged in layers or bands, while non-foliated rocks do not show any preferred orientation of minerals. The amount of pressure and temperature the rock experiences during metamorphism also influences whether it will develop a foliated or non-foliated texture.
