Marble is a nonfoliated metamorphic rock made of carbonate minerals, particularly calcite. It is formed by the metamorphism or limestone.
Gneiss is a foliated metamorphic rock made of silicate minerals such as quartz and feldspars, and micas. It forms from the metamorphism of granite or schist.
Marble is a non-folliated metamorphic rock while Schist is folliated.
schist and gneiss arefoliated and in gneiss you can see the bands.
Schist and gneiss are metamorphic rocks that display foliation, the parallel layering of the minerals caused by immense pressures. Quartzite and marble do not display foliation as they are metamorphosed more by heat than by pressure.
the granite is more crystal than basalt
No. Mica schist is a schist with a preponderance of mica minerals. There are also chlorite schists, talc schist, and so on.
Schist has A LOT of mica in it

Schist and gneiss are metamorphic rocks that display foliation, the parallel layering of the minerals caused by immense pressures. Quartzite and marble do not display foliation as they are metamorphosed more by heat than by pressure.
Schist and marble would be common examples.
It is possible if the marble contains platy minerals like mica.

Please indicate what characteristic is most desirable in the pavement, and rephrase the question.
Four of the metamorphic rocks are gneiss,slate,marble and schist.
Ordovician limestone, dolomite, schist, and marble
