Foliated rocks have a banded or layered appearance due to their mineral alignment, usually from pressure during formation. Non-foliated rocks lack this texture and are formed primarily through recrystallization without directional pressure, resulting in a more uniform appearance.

Is marble a folliated metamorphic rock?

Yes due to it being under pressure and heat. Metamorphic rock is rock that has been transformed chemically and/or physically due to extreme heat and pressure. Marble qualifies because it is composed of recrystallized carbonate minerals, typically dolomite and/or calcite (think limestone) that has been transformed by the heat and pressure present when it was deep in the crust
