It's the sedimentary rock shale.
Shale is a type of sedimentary rock that forms from the compaction of clay and silt particles. It can range in age from hundreds of millions to billions of years old, depending on the specific shale formation.
Shale undergoes low-grade metamorphism to form slate, then phyllite, schist, and finally gneiss as metamorphic grade increases. This sequence is a result of increasing temperature and pressure conditions during metamorphism, leading to the formation of different minerals and textures in the rock. The progression from shale to gneiss represents a range of metamorphic grades and the increasing intensity of metamorphic processes.
Shale is a sedimentary rock, not a metamorphic rock.
The scientific name for shale is "sedimentary rock." Shale is a fine-grained rock composed of compacted mud and clay particles.
Sandstone is a type of rock formed by the compaction and cementation of particles that are 0.07 centimeters in diameter. This process typically occurs over a long period of time under pressure, resulting in the formation of solid rock.
Yes.
It is a sedimentary rock.
High pressure can cause the formation of the metamorphic rock slate from the sedimentary rock shale.

Shale is a sedimentary rock that can transform into other types of rock through the process of metamorphism. Under heat and pressure, shale can turn into slate, while further metamorphism can result in the formation of phyllite, schist, and gneiss.
The first metamorphic rock to form from shale is slate. With further metamorphosis you get phyllite, then schist, then gneiss.
The Shale is not a metamorphic rock it is a sedimentary rock.
No. Shale is a clastic rock.
