(RQ:Chambers Younger Set)
The property, possessed by some crystalline rocks, of being divided into plates or layers, due to the cleavage structure of one of the constituents, as mica or hornblende. It may sometimes include slaty structure or cleavage, though the latter is usually independent of any mineral constituent, and transverse to the bedding, it having been produced by pressure.

1996, Eric C. Beam, ''Modeling Growth and Rotation of Porphyroblasts and Inclusion Trails'', D.G. De Paor, ''Structural Geology and Personal Computers'', p.249:
- They show that curved inclusion trails may form even with no coupling, as the porphyroblast overgrows foliation that is deflected around it.

2003, Alberto Candel, Lawrence Conlon, ''Foliations'', Vol.2, p.253:
- We will show that every closed 3-manifold has a foliation of codimension one. In 1952, G. Reeb published his construction of a foliation of the 3-sphere. About twelve years later, W. Lickorish 123 exhibited foliations of codimension one on every closed, orientable 3-manifold.
2004, Paweł Grzegorz Walczak, ''Dynamics Of Foliations, Groups And Pseudogroups'', Monografie Matematyczne: Vol.64, New Series, p.6:
- The simplest example of a foliation is provided by a single submersion ''F'' : ''M'' → ''N'', ''M'' and ''N'' being manifolds.
