2020-8-2 Kristin Piljay / Getty Images. The clay clasts or particles in shale are less than 0.004 millimeters in diameter, so the structure of the rock only becomes visible under magnification. The clay comes from decomposition of feldspar.Shale consists of at least 30 percent clay, with varying amounts of quartz, feldspar, carbonates, iron oxides, and organic matter.

2022-4-30 Definition: The term shale is often used as a very general term for all kinds of clay rich sedimentary rocks. Shales are the most abundant kind of all sedimentary rocks accounting for around 60% of the stratigraphic column. As such, most of the time spent drilling oil wells is spent drilling through shales. Clay minerals account for about 50-60 ...
