| Definitionskos:definition | Foliation defined by the shapes of deformed mineral grains or grain aggregates having aspect ratios greater than 1.5:1, greater than 10 percent of the rock is composed of 'matrix' showing evidence of tectonic reduction in grain size, and the foliation and matrix are interpreted to be the product of continuous, crystal-plastic deformation processes. Generic class is used when data are insufficient to determine classification to protomylontic, mylonite, or ultramylonitc foliation, or to specify that any sort of mylontic foliation may be present. |
