Laminated rock is a type of sedimentary rock structure that features laminae.
Laminae are representative of periods of sedimentation where thin beds with differing grain size, color or lithology are deposited.
They usually appear as a succesive sequence of parallel banding of 10mm or less in a rock sample or facies.

Which type of sedimentary rock is composed mostly of clay-sized particle?
Shale is a type of sedimentary rock composed mostly of clay-sized particles. It forms from the compaction of fine-grained sediments, such as clay and silt, and is characterized by its laminated or layered appearance. Shale is one of the most common sedimentary rocks found on Earth.
How would you describe a gypsum rock?
1. By its physical properties... like its hardness... if its pure gyspum, it should be scratched by your finger nails. 2. Texture.... by looking and identifying the type of texture it has... is it chicken wife? Oblong? Just massive? 3. Is it laminated? Or just a massive bed. 4. By what form it is..... like is it Selestine? Is it rosette (desert rose)? Is it satin spar? Is it Alabaster form?
What is mylonite?
"Mylonite" is a term coined by Charles Lapworth in 1885 to describe a fine grained, well-laminated rock he had found in the Moine Thrust Zone of the Scottish Highlands. The term has come into general usage to indicate any foliated (and usually lineated) fine grained metamorphic rock which shows evidence for strong ductile deformation. The term is purely structural and conveys no indication of the mineralogy of the rock. Thus, a mylonite can be of any rock type.
What type of material are Corelle plates made of?
Corelle is made of Vitrelle, a tempered glass consisting of two types of laminated glass into three layers. The bonding of these layers gives Corelle its strength, making it thinner and stronger.
Is shale foliated?
No. Shale is laminated. Foliations arean allignment of minerals due to increase in temperature and pressure during metamorphism. The laminations in shale however are a result of the plate like nature of clay minerals (more technically known as phyllosilicates) which when deposited lie flat against each other forming the lamina seen in shales.
What is a 5 letter word for laminated rock?
shale
Is shale foiliated?
No. Shale is laminated. It is a sedimentary rock. Foliation is a characteristic of metamorphic rock.
Can laminated glass be tempered?
Tempered glass can be laminated, but laminated glass cannot be tempered.
What is LVL?
Laminated veneer lumber (LVL) is a material made of thick veneers laminated along the grain direction, hot pressed and glued, and then sawed. Compared with solid wood, LVL has the advantages of uniform structure, high strength and good dimensional stability, which can meet the application requirements of wood structure building, bridge, furniture and transportation. Main species: Masson pine laminated veneer, eucalyptus laminated veneer, Yunnan pine laminated veneer, Larch laminated veneer, poplar laminated veneer, bamboo bundle laminated veneer, bamboo and wood composite laminated veneer.
How is the book cover laminated to become water resistant?

Can a birth certificate be laminated for preservation?
Yes, a birth certificate can be laminated for preservation.
What rocks make schist?
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.
Is chalk and shale the same thing?
No. Chalk is a variant of limestone, composed primarily of calcite. It is a carbonate sedimentary rock. Shale is a laminated sedimentary rock composed of silt and clay sized particles of mostly silicate mainerals. It is a clastic sedimentary rock.
What is a sentence using the word laminated?
The speech was laminated so that it wouldn't get wet and ruined.

How much better is laminated paper than non laminated paper?
