Natural slate stone is nothing but the mud that has been compressed and petrified over the years. It is composed of volcanic ashes and clay with minerals like quartz, illite (mainly), chlorite, biotite, pyrite and hematite (less) that are metamorphosed into layers. It is because of the minerals that this natural stone has different colors. And because of metamorphism slate has natural veins, waves and dots that looks so unique and alluring.

What made people older than that. metallic minerals are in them … and …?
…. That … You can extract the metal ore. metallurgical process are not very easy. What helped them distinguish some ore minerals are and some are stones. Minerals found at the bottom of the surface. In no how ancient peoples could have dug so deep. How did the knowledge that iron can be extracted from hematite. Similarly, copper, bronze of minerals etc etc. Were genius endowed damm amazing intuitive powers or god in a dream not to say 'oh man' s there, digs, melt in the absence air and iron geteth. How do you put in your brain that metal ores can be given. Thanks for your time.
I think it's much more likely to was discovered by accident. People campfires for cooking, heating, and keep pets. From time to time, accidentally create appropriate conditions "Reduce" metallic minerals to form in the fire. It is true that the minerals are only produced deep in the earth. If minerals are found within the land, it is likely that somewhere is occurring in the area too. In the stone age, the people had better material to work with stone age people and traveled long distances to find the stone with particular characteristics. If a stone began to change in a fire, people will naturally be very curious about what was happening. If a stone metal produced even a bit after spending days or weeks or months in the cooking fire someone, it would be a great thing. How think people found burning coal?
