When minerals break along planes of structural weakness, they have parting. The weakness may result from pressure or twinning; and is parallel to crystalographic directions and thus resembles cleavage. Parting unlike cleavage is not shown in all specimens but only occurs in those that have been twinned or subjected to the proper pressure.  2, record 4, English, - parting

A common example of elongation lineation is provided by elongated conglomerate pebbles.... Tectonically oriented conglomerate pebbles are elongated within cleavage planes, and the elongation may be many times that of naturally oblong pebbles. Common tectonic elongations are 1 : 2 and 1 : 3; elongations of 1 : 10 and more are known. Evidently, the direction of elongation of pebbles is a direction of elongation or flow of the whole rock. Such elongation may be parallel to axes of minor folds...  1, record 8, English, - elongation

Workers on petrofabrics correlate s-surfaces of all kinds with deforming movements, but do not attempt anything more than a very broad correlation with deforming forces.

There is considerable confusion in the prevalent usage of terms such as schistosity, foliation, flow cleavage, fracture cleavage, etc., Sander... recommends the employment of a purely descriptive non-genetic term to cover the parallel fabrics of metamorphic rocks; he includes all such structures("sets of planes of mechanical inhomogeneity") in his term "s-surfaces"("s-planes").  2, record 9, English, - s%2Dsurface
