La Pizarra
La pizarra es una roca metamórfica homogénea formada por la compactación de arcillas. Se presenta generalmente en un color opaco azulado oscuro y dividida en lajas u hojas planas siendo, por esta característica, utilizada en cubiertas y como antiguo elemento de escritura.
The word marble comes from the Greek word marmaros which means shining stone. To the geologist, marble is a non-foliated, granular metamorphic rock that is formed by the metamorphism of limestone and dolostone. It is usually formed by regional metamorphism but sometimes is formed by contact metamorphism. Both limestone and marble are calcium carbonate (CaCO3) which is also the composition of the mineral calcite. The metamorphism of limestone causes the calcite grains to grow in size and to interlock with one another. The result is that marble is noticeably more dense and harder than limestone. Limestone frequently contains invertebrate fossils. However, these fossils are almost always destroyed by metamorphism..
