Is slate gritty breaks apart easily?
Slate is a fine-grained metamorphic rock that can be somewhat gritty due to its composition of clay minerals. While it has a layered structure, it does not break apart easily under normal circumstances; instead, it can split into thin, flat sheets along its natural cleavage planes. However, if subjected to enough force, it can fracture. Overall, slate is known for its durability and resistance to breaking apart easily.

Which rock is harder to sculpt granite shale obsidian slate?
Granite is the rock with the highest tenacity, and therefore the most difficult to sculpt. There are problems with the others, for a variety of reasons. Shale is fissile, and will split into thin sheets. Obsidian is glassy, and will be prone to fracture. Slate is prone to splitting along foliation lines, but would be the easiest to sculpt mechanically.
Does slate contain calcium carbonate?
Slate is a metamorphic rock that typically does not contain calcium carbonate. It is formed from shale, a sedimentary rock, and is primarily composed of minerals like quartz, mica, chlorite, and hematite. However, there may be trace amounts of calcium carbonate in some slates, depending on the specific geological conditions of formation.
