schistosity
schistosity The planar alignment of platy
micas and elongate
amphiboles in a
regional metamorphic rock. The alignment of these minerals into a planar
fabric is caused by (
a) the physical rotation of the mineral grains under the influence of a
shear stress, or (
b) the syntectonic, metamorphic growth of new minerals with their long axes perpendicular to the principal compressive stress direction.
