Yes, slate can be an insulator. Since slate is chiefly carbon based, and many forms of carbon act as a mild insulator, slate could have this property as well. Unfortunately, slate can also contain contaminants that might act as a conductor.

No, slate is not a good insulator. It is a natural material that is not a good conductor of heat, but it does not provide significant insulation against heat loss or gain. Materials like foam, fiberglass, or cellulose are better insulators than slate.

No slate does not conduct electricity as it is an insulator.

It can also be used as an insulating medium in electric circuits.
