Which type of metamorphism is most likely to change shale to hornfels?

Contact Metamorphism


Could contact metamorphism change a shale into a phyllite?

No. Contact metamorphism will most likely alter shale into hornfels. Phyllite is regionally metamorphosed slate, and slate is metamorphosed shale.


Which two kinds of adjoining bedrock would most likely have a zone of contact metamorphism?

shale and sandstone


Why is foliation more likely to occur during mountain building than through the contact of rock with magma?

Foliation is more likely to occur during mountain building rather than through the contact of rock with magma because of the stress that is developed during mountain building. This refers to the action on a plane as the force applied per unit area of the plane.


Which type of metamorphism is most likely to occur along the fault line?

Dynamic Metamorphism >.<


Which two kinds of adjoining bedrock would most likely have a zone of contact metamorphism between them?

If the sedimentary rock limestone is subjected to metamorphism what metamorphic rock will likely form?

Limestone can metamorphose into marble, a regional metamorphic rock, or into skarn, a contact metamorphic rock.


At which location is burial metamorphism most likely to occur?

Convergent boundary


At which location is dynamic metamorphism most likely to occur?

Transform boundary


Which sedimentary rock is most likely to be changed to slate during regional metamorphism?
