exists and is an alternate of . The difference lies in the degree of metamorphism. Metamorphism is the solid state recrystallisation of minerals. Both rocks are metamorphosed by regional metamorphism (directed pressure), however schist is metamorphosed more than slate. Therefore Slate is only a low grade metamorphic rock whereas schist is a medium grade metamorphic rock (gneiss is high grade).
