Slate is mainly composed of quartz and muscovite or illite, often along with biotite, chlorite, hematite, and pyrite and, less frequently, apatite, graphite, kaolin, magnetite, tourmaline, or zircon as well as feldspar.
Slate can be found in the Uinta Mountains in southern Wyoming.

Slate can be found beneath the Earth's surface. It is formed from mudstone or shale and is a fine grain of crystalline rock.
Slate is commonly found in areas with metamorphic rocks, particularly in regions with high tectonic activity. It is not rare geologically speaking, but its commercial availability can vary depending on the specific location and quality of the slate deposits.
No, slate rock is typically not attracted to a magnet because it is composed mainly of minerals like clay and quartz, which are not magnetic. Magnetic properties in rocks are usually found in those containing iron minerals, such as magnetite.

Slate is a metamorphic rock. Slate is actually shale that had low heat and not very much pressure put on it. Slate is mostly formed in mountain areas. It takes thousands of years for slate to change. Slate can be any color but is mostly found in gray or black. When it is broken, it splits into layers. It can have quartz, muscovite, hematite, graphite, and other minerals in it.
