| Definitionskos:definition | Foliation defined by parting surfaces (cleavage domains) that have no apparent thickness, are spaced between 5 cm and 25 cm, and do not crenulate an older foliation. Fabric intermediate between typical cleavage and joints. Parting surfaces are regularly spaced, and penetrative on a 1-10 m scale. 5 cm upper limit on spacing of 'cleavage domains' in a 'cleavage 'fabric is suggested by Borradaile et al. [1982]. |
