Maintaining slate floor coverings: slate is a metamorphic rock. It begins as fine-grained clay mud. The process of extreme pressure and heating causes the mud, composed of sediments of decomposed stone and organic matter, to first to turn to sedimentary shale and then to slate.(Hard Floor Maintenance Opportunities)
Magazine article from: ICS Cleaning Specialist ; Slate cleaves along flat planes and is split into parallel sheets. They are easily identifiable by their "cleft" irregular surface; however, they can be honed to a smooth surface resembling a chalkboard.
