| Definitionskos:definition | Continuous cleavage defined by aligned fine to very-fine grained phylosilicate mineral grains. The individual grains defining the fabric are too small to be seen by the unaided eye. Grades into phyllitic cleavage as grain size increases. Cleavage domains typically less than 100 micrometres wide, rock easily splits into slabs and thin plates. |
