A fine grained sedimentary rock that forms slate when placed under extreme heat and pressure?
The rock you are referring to is shale. Shale is a fine-grained sedimentary rock composed of compacted clay and silt particles. When subjected to intense heat and pressure, shale can undergo metamorphism and transform into slate. This process of metamorphism causes the clay minerals in shale to recrystallize, resulting in the characteristic foliated texture of slate.
How is metamorphic rock is made from sediment?
Metamorphic rocks are formed by rocks sedimentary or igneous that change their form under intense heat and or pressure.
What does igneous means?
Produced under conditions involving intense heat, igneous rock is rock formed by solidification from a molten state, especially from molten magma. an igneous rock is a lava rock that has cooled!
Lungfish survive intense heat and and in active state called?
Lungfish survive intense heat and and in active state called extivation
What does heat limestone with clay produce?

Wiil cast iron pipes collapse under intense heat?
They are iron, so with enough heat, they will melt. Because of the nature of cast iron, they will probably crack and break before they melt.
How do you use blistered in a sentence?

What form of energy do you think causes cracks in roads?
heat which can cause base materials with higher clay contents (e.g. some gravel) to dry in summer and crack
What does coal change into?
coal, in theory, should turn into diamonds if under intense pressure and heat for millions of years.
What was gneiss before it undertook heat and pressure?
A mixture of sand and clay, mudstone, metamorphose (process of changing from one type of rock into a metamorphic rock) into gneiss rocks or schist rocks. The mudstones would change under heat and pressure to make the new Metamorphic rocks.
How is metamorphic rock is made from sediment?
Metamorphic rocks are formed by rocks sedimentary or igneous that change their form under intense heat and or pressure.
What is a man made diamond?
This is a diamond manufactured from carbon in a lab, under intense high pressure and extreme high heat.
How many therms in a ccf of natural gas?
Under intense heat and pressure, the soft coal turns into hard coal.
How do you make homemade clay firm?
The best way to make homemade clay firm is to heat it up. You can heat the clay up in an oven.
What type of rock is produced under conditions involving great heat?
Rock produced under intense heat are known as igneous. Basalt, pumice and granite are three common (and useful)l examples of igneous rocks.
