What type of fracture is the rock schist?

Schist is a metamorphic rock characterized by its foliated texture, which results from the alignment of minerals under pressure and heat. It typically exhibits a layered or banded appearance due to this foliation. Fractures in schist can be classified as either jointing or faulting, depending on whether they occur without displacement or with displacement, respectively. Overall, schist is not defined by a specific type of fracture but rather its metamorphic properties and foliation.
