You can identify metamorphic rocks by various minerals or a lack of thereof (mineralogy), also by foliation: whether they're foliated or non-foliated. If they show presence of shistosity or gneissosity (alignment of minerals ) , fissility and grunular appearance.
Metamorphic rocks can be identified if the rock is foliated or nonfoliated, foliating type, type of metamorphism (contact/regional), and by probable original rock. :)
Examine its texture. Metamorphic rocks often have a banded, slaty, or platy texture.
1-the rock type 2-how much silicone it has in it 3-if its intrusive or extrusive
Geologists study the texture and composition of minerals to identify metamorphic rocks. Metamorphic rocks are classified into two groups known as foliated and non foliated.
texture color hardness
Foliated and non-foliated
its awesome
I dont know can you answer it please
Any type of rock can become metamorphic.
No.
Metamorphic rocks are made by heat and pressure, and assuming this isn't a grown person, you SHOULD know that igneous rocks are formed by lava or magma that hardens, so it is when a metamorphic rock is melted, and then hardens. This creates igneous rock.
Rock can be changed into metamorphic rock by heat and pressure.
A texture know as foliation is common in metamorphic rock and garnets are more commonly found in metamorphic rock than other rock types of the crust.
Metamorphic rocks, like slate or quartizite, or even diamonds.
A metamorphic rock.
in a metamorphic rock you find rock.
I dont know can you answer it please
Any type of rock can become metamorphic.
Marble is the metamorphosed result of limestone. Therefore, marble is metamorphic.
No it is not metamorphic, it is a sedimentary rock.
Chert is NOT a metamorphic rock.
