Slates are dense and fine grained rock. The colour of slates are generally gray, red, brown and green ranging from dark to light. It is produced by the compression of clays, shale, and various other rocks developing a characteristic cleavage consisting sericite and quartz with biotite, chlorite, and hematite as principal accessories.
In other words slates are generally formed by low-grade regional metamorphism of pelithic sediments or fine-grained tuffs. It can be associated with other metamorphic sedimentary or volcanic rocks.
The multi-layered slate stone is formed from the metamorphosis of shale (a soft claystone). When shale is subjected to high temperatures and pressure, it flattens out to form slate. The mineral composition of slate includes pyrite, chlorite, biotite, muscovite and quartz. Slate is resistant to stains, acid spills and fire.
Slate is a homogeneous, fine-grained, foliated metamorphic rock, which originated from sedimentary rock and is formed out of volcanic lava that settled over clay deposits. Commonly occurring in different shades of grey, slate also exhibits other colors like purple, cyan, and green.
Slates are or argillaceous origin of metamorphic rocks and can also be defined as a layered stone. Fossils may be sometimes preserved in slate but are invariably distorted. Folds are often apparent in the field. Too fine-grained are tough to distinguished with the naked eye.
Uses of Slate | Best Indian Slate Manufacturer and Supplier
Slate Finishes available at Rachana Stones
- Both surfaces natural CLEFT –
If a slate tile is clefted, the surface is kept the way it was when it was quarried. This means the surface will be rough, bumpy and uneven. Cleft slate provides great traction and is an excellent slip-resistant surface, but can be uncomfortable to walk on without shoes. - One surface HONED another natural –
A honed finish means that the slate has been slightly sanded, so it has a natural, slightly dull look. Honed slate works well in all types of landscapes and provides good slip resistance for a slate walkway. - Fine POLISHED surface –
Polished slate is fairly rare because slate is not really suited for a glossy finish like marble and granite. A polished finish on any stone makes the stone slippery, so polished stones are best used indoors where this is not a problem. - Machine cut with TUMBLED
