     The house was a big elaborate limestone affair, evidently new. Winter sunshine sparkled on lace-hung casement, on glass marquise, and the burnished bronze foliations of grille and door.

8. (geology) The property, possessed by some crystalline rocks, of being divided into plates or layers, due to the cleavage structure of one of the constituents, as mica or hornblende. It may sometimes include slaty structure or cleavage, though the latter is usually independent of any mineral constituent, and transverse to the bedding, it having been produced by pressure.

     Formation of alteration minerals in the host rock during deformation within the shear zone is indicated by the parallel foliation within the secondary micaceous minerals and the unmineralized host schist.

   • 1993, Charles A. Baskerville, Fitzhugh T. Lee, Charles A. Ratté, “Landslide Hazards in Vermont”, in U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin, published 2043, page 18:

     The dominant strike orientation of both bedding and foliation of Vermont bedrock is north or northeasterly.

   • 1996, Eric C. Beam, Modeling Growth and Rotation of Porphyroblasts and Inclusion Trails, D.G. De Paor, Structural Geology and Personal Computers, p.249:

     They show that curved inclusion trails may form even with no coupling, as the porphyroblast overgrows foliation that is deflected around it.

9. (topology) A set of submanifolds of a given manifold, each of which is of lower dimension than it, but which, taken together, are coextensive with it.
   • 1992, R. C. Penner, Combinatorics of Train Tracks‎, page 204:

   • 2003, Alberto Candel, Lawrence Conlon, Foliations, Vol.2, p.253:

     We will show that every closed 3-manifold has a foliation of codimension one. In 1952, G. Reeb published his construction of a foliation of the 3-sphere. About twelve years later, W. Lickorish [123] exhibited foliations of codimension one on every closed, orientable 3-manifold.

   • 2004, Paweł Grzegorz Walczak, Dynamics Of Foliations, Groups And Pseudogroups, Monografie Matematyczne: Vol.64, New Series, p.6:
