Depends on which one. Diamond is a metamorphosed coal/carbon that is the hardest natural substance known. Marble is metamorphosed limestone that is much softer. It's safe to say that all metamorphosed rocks are harder than they were in their pre-metamorphosed form.
Marble is metamorphosed limestone. The word is also used in the masonry trade to describe sedimentary rock that can be polished, but my first sentence is the geological answer.
Quartz, it is metamorphosed.
Marble is formed when limestone is metamorphosed. This process occurs when the mineral calcite in limestone recrystallizes due to heat and pressure, resulting in a denser, harder rock with a crystalline structure.

Slate is metamorphosed shale.
Metamorphosed coal is called Anthracite.
