The slate (lowest grade), phyllite, schist, gneiss (highest grade) rocks.
Explanation:
- The slate is hard and fine-grained rocks and has a salty cleavage that is caused by the growth of minerals due to the metamorphose of the grain ground rocks while schist is medium grade sheet-like grain rock.
- The texture of phyllite is very glittery as its a very fine grain size and the grains are flat. Schist has the greatest grain size. Phyllite has a foliated texture but schists consist of scale.
