Schist: It is a coarse-grained metamorphic rock composed of some fibrous minerals arranged in parallel. It is lighter and less strong. It is also easily weathered or cracked by frost. 3. Marble: It is a rock containing carbonate components, which is transformed into rock after metamorphism. It has beautiful stripes and very good hardness, making it suitable for architectural decoration. However, it is not resistant to strong acid corrosion. 4.
