South Indian Slates
Slate is a fine-grained metamorphic rock
of argillaceous origin formed by the composition of mud and stone sediment
that splits into thin,smooth-surfaced layers.It is chemically a
multi-mineral rock made of a composition of minerals and colloidal
substances.The mineral composition essentially consists of members of Mica
group commonly sericite & muscovite,and and accessory minerals such as
oxides, calcites, minor amounts quarts and feldspar along with some contents
of ferro-magnesium minerals. The content of silica is normally poor.The Clay
group commonly consists of paragonite, chlorite &kaonilite. This fine
grained meamorphic rock formed of above composition of minerals and other
organic substances has been hardened by heat and pressure. Since the
geolgical process varies greatly from place to place, its hardness and
porosity varies quite a bit.
Slates characteristics vary with source. It may be black, green, yellow,
brown, red or mottled and is relatively dense.Many slates that are available
today have wide ranging physical characteristics and overall suitability.
The slate stone differs in its density, tensile strength, absorbency and
abrasion resistance.

Physical Properties
| Composition |
- |
Muscovite,Cericite,
chlorite,hematite, kaolinite, micas, quartz,clay and other
accessory minerals (wide variation in composition). |
| Hardness |
- |
Soft - easily scratched. They
can also be as hard and dense as granite |
| Absorption |
- |
Low - medium
oil, water other liquids |
| Weathering characteristics |
- |
Due to the wide ranges of
slate, this stone has wide ranges of weathering. Cleft planes
provides permeability for water penetration resulting in
spalling and flaking. Slates that have a high kaolinite content
(a clay) display accelerated rate of deterioration in wet
environments |
| Tendencies |
- |
Absorbs oils
and liquids...Softer/medium varieties scratches easily. |
| Colors |

Colors vary widely |
| Finish |
- |
Different
finishes such as acrylic, wax, natural cleft, honed etc. |
