Ever wondered how rocks get those intricate layered patterns? This video delves into foliation, explaining why it's a critical feature for understanding the incredible transformations metamorphic rocks undergo deep within the Earth.
In this video, you'll discover:
► Why foliation is a primary indicator of intense pressure and heat in metamorphic rocks.
► How directed stress causes mineral grains to align, creating distinct layers.
► The different types of foliation (like slaty cleavage, schistosity, and gneissic banding) and what they reveal about a rock's history.
► How identifying foliation helps geologists differentiate metamorphic rocks from other rock types.
