[shis′täs·əd·ē] (geology) A type of cleavage characteristic of metamorphic rocks, notably schists and phyllites, in which the rocks tend to split along parallel planes defined by the distribution and parallel arrangement of platy mineral crystals.

En geología se denomina esquistosidad a la propiedad de ciertas rocas y suelos, notablemente los esquistos o pizarras, que les lleva a organizarse en láminas o superficies paralelas entre sí.
Está ligada a la microestructura del material, pues en ciertas configuraciones la presencia de una fuerza perpendicular permite la reordenación de los minerales que lo forman.

--------------------------------------------------
Schistosity, mode of foliation that occurs in certain metamorphic rocks as a consequence of the parallel alignment of platy and lath-shaped mineral constituents. It reflects a considerable intensity of metamorphism—i.e., changes resulting from high temperatures, pressures, and deformation.

Andrew Bramhall
: unidiomatic and 'schistosity' unintelligible to a lay audience; simply a lazy unresearched attempt at literality (and point-grabbing).

Thomas Walker
: I think "concordant with" is more common (& how I would translate this), although "concordant to" is found, I think less frequently.

coinciding with the modified rock shapes
"Some shales protrude from igreous rocks (molten rock which cools and hardens), of fine basalt (dark volcanic rock) grain. Most of the rock shales are of glass-like minerals bearing graphite and chlorite."
""Ciertos esquintos proceden de rocas, ígneas de grano fino como basaltos y tobas. La mayoría de los esquistos son de mica, aunque son frecuentes de grafito y clorito."
