Schist is a type of rock that is metamorphic. It can be found all around North and South America, as well as Europe.
The most commonly found minerals in micaceous schist soil are quartz and mica, but mostly the latter.

Generally not. Schist is a metamorphic rock formed when other rock types are exposed to immense pressure. If schist is found near a volcano, it is only by coincidence.
Schist is a term for a type of metamorphic rock, and yes, it is found outside the U.S. as well as within it.
Schist itself is not directly harmful to human life. However, prolonged exposure to certain minerals found in schist, such as asbestos, can be harmful to human health. It is important to take precautions when working with schist to minimize exposure to harmful substances.
Schist comes from shale. It is laminated , flaky, and found in parallel layers. The minerals in this rocks that have crystallized from the parent rock are visible.
== == Schists are abundant in the Precambrian (Archeozoic and Proterozoic) rocks. Schists are usually the product of regional metamorphism of existing rock, usually sedimentary, but sometimes of fine grained igneous rock. Schist could therefore be found where eroded mountains reveal the rock, or in areas of glacial deposition of eroded schist.
Garnet schist rocks are commonly found in regions with high-grade metamorphic activity, such as mountain belts and continental margins. They are often associated with regions that have experienced intense geological processes, including high temperature and pressure conditions that resulted in the formation of metamorphic rocks like garnet schist.
