Types of Luxullianite and Oil shale

Some rocks according to their use or texture are classified into different types. Know more about Luxullianite Texture and Oil shale Texture. Types of Luxullianite are Igneous Protolith Granite, Sedimentary Protolith Granite, Mantle Granite, Anorogenic Granite and Hybrid Granite whereas the types of Oil shale are Carbonate-rich Shale, Siliceous Shale and Cannel Shale.During historic times, some rocks depending on their hardness were used to create Pictographs and Petroglyphs. Rocks which are hard were generally not used. Pictographs are paintings or drawings that have been placed or created on the surface of rock. Luxullianite and Oil shale were not used for creating pictographs. Petroglyph is an image which is carved into a rock. These are images created by removing part of a rock surface by incising, picking, carving or abrading, as a form of rock art. Luxullianite and Oil shale were not used for creating petroglyphs.
