Slate is a rock formation with one very unique and distinctive characteristic.
It can be split into thin uniform sheets of rock. This is primarily due to its rather unusual beginning 400 million years ago when Eastern Pennsylvania was covered by an ancient inland sea. As years went by thousands of feet of sediment coated the ocean floor, one layer after another. Time, heat and pressure eventually turned this deposit into solid beds of stone. When this deposit was discovered in the 1850's many Welsh, English and Italians settled in the Bangor area to work this stone.
