No, metaconglomerate is a metamorphic rock, hence the "meta-" addition in front of the usually sedimentary rock conglomerate.
Metaconglomerate is a metamorphis rock! :)
Any rock that becomes molten and then solidifies underground will be classified as an intrusive igneous rock.
Metaconglomerate is a "metamorphic" rock whose parent rock type was a sedimentary rock.
Metamorphosed sedimentary conglomerate is referred to as metaconglomerate.
Conglomerate Rock.
Conglomerate Rock.
It is called metaconglomerate.
The protolith of metaconglomerate is a sedimentary rock called conglomerate. Conglomerate is composed of rounded gravel-sized clasts that are cemented together. Through the process of metamorphism, this sedimentary rock undergoes changes in temperature and pressure to form metaconglomerate.
Metaconglomerate is classified as a non-foliated metamorphic rock. It forms from the metamorphism of conglomerate rock, where the large clasts remain distinct and do not align in a preferred orientation, which is characteristic of foliation. As a result, metaconglomerate typically exhibits a more granular texture without the layered appearance found in foliated rocks.
Igneous rock is formed.
Igneous rock is formed when magma cools and becomes solid.
Obsidian is an igneous rock.
