  We prove that generically in $\text{Diff}^{1}_{m}(M)$, if an expanding
$f$-invariant foliation $W$ of dimension $u$ is minimal and there is a periodic
point of unstable index $u$, the foliation is stably minimal. By this we mean
there is a $C^{1}$-neighborhood $\mathcal{U}$ of $f$ such that for all
$C^{2}$-diffeomorphisms $g\in \mathcal{U}$, the $g$-invariant analytic
continuation of $W$ is minimal. In particular, all such $g$ are topologically
mixing. Moreover, all such $g$ have a hyperbolic ergodic component of the
volume measure $m$ which is essentially dense. This component is, in fact,
Bernoulli. We provide new examples of stably minimal diffeomorphisms which are
not partially hyperbolic.
