Not in the amounts you would expect from a metal, but surprisingly yes. This is mainly due to the water in the pores, whose conductivity is increased by ions from the minerals in the shale.
The Shale is not a metamorphic rock it is a sedimentary rock.
Shale rocks turn into clay. The pressure make shale into clay.
Shale is a type of rock. A piece of shale is normally flat and thin like a small chalkboard.
The rock would be limestone, the mineral would be calcite.
Shale is a rock not a chemical compound.

Shale is a noun.
No, you generally cannot scratch shale with your fingernails. Shale is a sedimentary rock that is relatively hard and composed of clay minerals, making it more resistant to scratching. Fingernails have a hardness of about 2.5 on the Mohs scale, while shale typically has a hardness of around 3 to 4. Therefore, a fingernail would not be able to leave a scratch on shale.
The reason that oil shale is not used to produce oil is because this is what keeps the oil well from collapsing after the oil is removed. If the oil shale were mined, the oil well would collapse into a large trench in the ground.
It can be. It is found in a rock type called shale and is produced in the shale form the original bio mater included in the deposition of the shale. If a unit of shale lithology is to be found on the continental shelf strata then it is likely that that shale will contain shale gas and it will be under the sea.
The Shale is not a metamorphic rock it is a sedimentary rock.
A gabbro dike is typically older than a gray shale. Gabbro is an igneous rock that forms from the cooling of magma intruding into existing rock formations. Gray shale, on the other hand, is a sedimentary rock that forms from the accumulation of sediment over time. Therefore, the gabbro dike would have formed before the gray shale was deposited.
That would be "Oil shale" - shale is a kind of rock. Anyway, the oil shale is dug up and then hot, hot steam or other substance is run through it to make the oil runny enough to flow down and out, where it is then collected.
No, shale is clastic.
Shale.
No, shale is not magnetic.
