Definition of schistose in English:

schistose

adjective ˈʃɪstəʊs

(of metamorphic rock) having a laminar structure like that of schist.
Example sentencesExamples
- The metamorphic grains are composed of 100% quartz except for a small number with schistose textures that contain aligned mica.
- Southwards along section towards the Sach Pass, the leucogranites gradually decrease in abundance and the pelitic rocks becomes more schistose.
- Also observed, but far less common, are fine-grained silver, pink, or pale red schistose varieties.
- With increasing content of white mica the fabric changes from massive to schistose.
- The amphibolite is mostly medium grained, rather schistose and has a characteristic reddish hue on weathered surfaces.

Derivatives

schistosity

nounʃɪsˈtɒsɪtiˌʃɪsˈtɑsədi

Granite veins cut pelitic schists at a high angle but the veins are not folded, showing that the main schistosity predates emplacement.
Example sentencesExamples
- In the northern part of the range, no pervasive brittle deformation features were recognized and only local reactivations of the regional schistosity by right-lateral faulting was documented.
- Further evidence of multiphase folding is given by crenulation or microfolding with hinge zones a centimetre or so apart which crinkle an earlier cleavage or schistosity.
- In the area sampled, there is considerable variation in the orientation of the schistosity and consequently the amount of rotation will vary from site to site.
- Brittle faulting is subparallel to the regional subvertical schistosity, indicating that it was superimposed in a broad region that has earlier experienced ductile-dominated deformation.
