Mud
Shale started as mud. Mud is deposited in the bottom of lakes and seas.
== Shale is a sedimentary rock, comprised of lithified mud and clay minerals.
No, shale is a sedimentary rock formed from the accumulation of clay, silt, or mud particles that have been compacted over time. It is not formed from volcanic activity like lava. Shale typically has very fine-grained particles, not crystals.
Shale is a fine-grained sedimentary rock composed of clay minerals and tiny particles of other minerals. It forms from the compaction of mud and silt over long periods of time. Shale is commonly found in layers in sedimentary rocks and is known for its ability to split into thin, flat pieces.
The most common sedimentary rock formed from mud or clay is shale. Shale is a fine-grained sedimentary rock made up of compressed and hardened clay and silt particles. It typically exhibits a characteristic fissile (easily splitting into layers) structure.

Shale is made from layers of mud and clay pressed together. :)
Mudstone or shale will form due to the lithification of mud. Mud typically consists of silt and clay particles that compact and cement together over time, forming fine-grained sedimentary rocks like mudstone or shale.
The rock that is cemented mud, clay, or silt is called shale. Shale is a fine-grained sedimentary rock composed of compacted and hardened mud or clay particles.
The scientific name for shale is "sedimentary rock." Shale is a fine-grained rock composed of compacted mud and clay particles.
"Petrichor". The pleasant fragrance that accompanies the first rain after a dry spell is called "petrichor".

The Shale is not a metamorphic rock it is a sedimentary rock.

it is called SHALE :)
