The presence of aligned minerals in the rock determines if it is foliated or non-foliated. Foliated metamorphic rocks have minerals that are arranged in layers or bands, while non-foliated rocks do not show any preferred orientation of minerals. The amount of pressure and temperature the rock experiences during metamorphism also influences whether it will develop a foliated or non-foliated texture.
