Shale is a type of sedimentary rock that is formed from the compaction and cementation of clay or mud particles. It is not considered a biochemical rock because it is primarily composed of physical and chemical processes, rather than being formed from the accumulation of organic materials like limestone or coal.
Oil shale rock contains organic material that generates oil when heated, while regular rock does not. Oil shale rock also has a higher organic carbon content compared to regular rock.
Slate. Slate is a low grade metamorphic rock derived from shale or mudstone.
no it is a sedimentary rock
No, basalt cannot turn into shale. Basalt is an igneous rock formed from the cooling of lava, while shale is a sedimentary rock formed from the compaction of clay or mud. The processes that form these two types of rocks are different, so basalt cannot directly change into shale.
false!
The Shale is not a metamorphic rock it is a sedimentary rock.
No. Shale is a clastic rock.

This is Shale, a Sedimentary rock.
Shale is clastic sedimentary rock.
Shale is a sedimentaory rock, while Slate is a metamorphic rock. Generally the shale is metamorphosed into slate.
No rock could be a biochemical.
No, shale is clastic.
