Direction: Write TRUE If the statement is correct and FALSE, If it is incorrect. Write the answer in your notebook
1. Marble is a granular limestone that has been recrystallized under the influence of heat pressure
and aqueous solutions. There are a wide variety of marbles providing many pleasing surfaces when polished.
2. Hornfels is used architecture. The hard, interesting-looking stone may be used to make interior
flooring and decorations as well as exterior facing, paving, curbing, and decorations. The rock is used in the
construction industry to make road aggregate.
3. Gneiss has many uses as a building material such as flooring, ornamental stones, gravestones,
facing stones on buildings and work surfaces.
4. Slate is a fine-grained, foliated metamorphic rock that is created by the modification of shale or
mudstone by low-grade regional metamorphism. It is popular for a wide variety of uses such as roofing, flooring,
and flagging because of its durability and attractive appearance.
5. Amphibolite is quarried and crushed for use as an aggregate in highway construction and as a
ballast stone in railroad construction. It is also quarried and cut for use as a dimension stone
Guide questions
