What is the location of schist?
Schist is a form of metamorphic rock in which a sedimentary rock has been subjected to heat and pressure. These change agents will alter the structure of the rock, and will allow / cause the minerals in the rock to change and aggregate. Schist is a very common rock type, but does need the parent rock to have undergone metamorphism.
What kind of rock is schist rock?
Schist is a metamorphic rock.
What is the rock category of schist?
A schist is a metamorphic rock.
What rock group does Schist belong in?
A schist rock belongs in the metamorphic rock group.
Does schist rock bubble when with hydrochloric acid?
No, schist rock does not bubble when in contact with hydrochloric acid because schist is a metamorphic rock composed of minerals like mica, chlorite, and quartz that do not react with acids to produce gas bubbles. Schist is typically more resistant to chemical weathering compared to other rock types like limestone or marble.
Does schist contain diamond?
No, schist is a metamorphic rock type.
Is a schist rock a crystal?

Is schist rock by an active volcano?

What type of rocks Schist?
Schist is a high-grade metamorphic rock.
Is schist an igneous rock?

How old is schist rock?
Schist rock is a type of metamorphic rock that forms deep within the Earth's crust. The age of schist rock can vary widely, as it depends on when the rock was formed through the process of metamorphism. In general, schist rock can range in age from hundreds of millions to billions of years old.
Would you expect to find a well preserved dinosaur bone in a metamorphic rock like schist.?
No. When a rock is metamorphosed it normally removes all traces of fossils. Schist in particular has been under great pressure, enough to change the minerals in the original rock.
