Interesting Facts

Slate is a fine-grained, foliated metamorphic rock formed from shale through low-grade regional metamorphism.

Slate is commonly used in roofing and flooring due to its durability and resistance to weathering.

The color of slate can vary from dark grey to black, often with hints of blue or green due to mineral content.

Fun Facts

Some of the oldest slate quarries in the world date back to the Roman era, where it was used for writing tablets.

💡 3

The texture of slate is so fine that it was historically used to make school slates, giving us the term 'slate' for classroom chalkboards.
