Basalt is a fine-grained, dark-colored volcanic rock that is rich in iron and magnesium minerals, formed from lava flows. Shale is a fine-grained sedimentary rock composed of clay minerals that have been compacted and hardened over time. Basalt is igneous in origin, formed from magma, while shale is sedimentary, formed from the accumulation of clay and silt particles.
Mudstone is another name for shale.
Shale can sometimes contain magnetic minerals, such as magnetite or hematite, which can make it slightly magnetic. However, the magnetic properties of shale can vary depending on the specific mineral content and geological conditions.
Shale typically has a white streak, which means that upon scratching the surface of shale, a white powder trail will be left behind.
The scientific name for shale is "sedimentary rock." Shale is a fine-grained rock composed of compacted mud and clay particles.

Shale is a noun.
Shale is a fine grained sedimentary rock. Shale is used in making pottery, brick, and cement. It can also be used to make oil. The origins are unknown but the word is thought to first be used in the mid 1700s. There are several Olde English variations.
It can be. It is found in a rock type called shale and is produced in the shale form the original bio mater included in the deposition of the shale. If a unit of shale lithology is to be found on the continental shelf strata then it is likely that that shale will contain shale gas and it will be under the sea.
The Shale is not a metamorphic rock it is a sedimentary rock.
No, shale is not magnetic.
No, shale is clastic.

Shale rocks turn into clay. The pressure make shale into clay.
