What is the parent rock of the nonfoliated metamorphic rock?
The parent rock of nonfoliated metamorphic rocks can vary, but some common examples include limestone, quartzite, and marble. These rocks typically form under high temperature and pressure conditions without the development of a layered texture like foliated rocks.

What are some example names of foliated and un-foliated rocks?
Some examples of foliated rocks include slate, phyllite, schist, and gneiss. Amphibolite can be either foliated or nonfoliated. Examples of nonfoliated rocks include anthracite coal, hornfels, serpentinite, soapstone, quartzite, marble, and metaconglomerate.
What are some examples of rock types?
Igneous rocks - rocks formed from molten rock of the mantle Sedimentary rocks - rocks found in streams Metamorphic rocks - rocks changed by the effects of heat and pressure
Is quartzite foliated or nonfoliated?
Folation is a term that applies to metamorphic rocks. Quartz is a single mineral that does not necessarily occur in metamorphic rocks. It can appear in foliated rocks such as gneiss as well as non foliated rocks such as quartzite.
What type of rocks are nonfoliated?
Nonfoliated rocks are typically formed from processes such as contact metamorphism or regional metamorphism, where extreme heat and pressure cause recrystallization of minerals without the formation of distinct layers or bands. Some common types of nonfoliated rocks include quartzite, marble, and hornfels.
What are some rocks that are not volcanic?
Sedimentary rocks: Metamorphic rocks
What is the rock name of Metamorphic rock?
There are lots of types of metamorphic rock, some examples are:-MarbleSlateschistgneiss
Why Some Minerals Only Occur In Metamorphic Rocks.?
because if the metamorphic rocks are big they will shrink
What are some questions about metamorphic rocks that you would like to explore?
Some questions about metamorphic rocks that could be explored include: How do different types of pressure and temperature affect the formation of metamorphic rocks? What are the key minerals found in metamorphic rocks and how do they indicate the rock's history? How do metamorphic rocks differ from igneous and sedimentary rocks in terms of their formation processes and characteristics?
