Best Answer

Cataclastic meta rocks are formed from rocks grinding past each other in fault zones. Burial metamorphism creates altered rock simply from overburden pressure. Contact metamorphism occurs from exposure to heat from an intrusive magma body. Regional metamorphism occurs from pressure and heat caused by tectonic forces.
