- The commercial definition of slate is rocks which are easily split into
thin sheets along a plane of cleavage resulting from a schistosity flux,
caused by very low or low grade metamorphism due to tectonic compression.
They are distinguished from sedimentary (stone) slates which invariably
split along a bedding or sedimentation plane. The Original Italian Slate's
technical and geological characteristics make it the best playing surface
for billiards because: Original Italian Slate absorbs a very low amount
of water - therefore it does not cause damp cloth. It has a very low content
of Si02 (quartz) which makes it: soft, easy to work with, elastic for
easy installation and flexible for high resistance to rupture. Ligurian
Region is geologically unique - The high moisture content in the slate
is unique to the region. The slate industry hosts one of the most knowledgeable
and experienced work forces in Italy. </font></p>
