What are some names metamorphic rocks?
shale
Which of the following is NOT an example of metamorphic rock marble gneiss slate shale?
Shale is a sedimentary rock, not a metamorphic rock.
When shale is under heat and pressure what two metamorphic rocks does it turn in to?
i donno
Which rocks are metamorphic rocks?
Marble (metamorphosed limestone) Slate (metamorphosed shale) Gneiss (metamorphosed granite)
What is a metamorphic rock formed from a shale?
Slate. Slate is a low grade metamorphic rock derived from shale or mudstone.
What type of metamorphic rock does shale form?
Shale typically forms into slate, phyllite, or schist through metamorphism. Each of these metamorphic rocks forms under different temperature and pressure conditions, resulting in varying textures and mineral compositions.
Which of Slate Granite Shale or Pumice is classified as a sedimentary rock?
Slate, granite, and shale are classified as metamorphic or igneous rocks, while pumice is classified as an igneous rock. Sedimentary rocks are formed through the deposition and solidification of sediment.
What sedimentary rock does shale turn into?
Slate is metamorphosed shale.
What rocks recrystallize to form metamorphic?
Sedimentary rocks such as shale, limestone, and sandstone can recrystallize to form metamorphic rocks like slate, marble, and quartzite, respectively. Igneous rocks like basalt and granite can also undergo recrystallization to form metamorphic rocks such as greenstone and gneiss.
What are non-examples of metamorphic rocks?
Sandstone, limestone, and shale are examples of sedimentary rocks. Granite, basalt, and obsidian are examples of igneous rocks.
What type of rock is the weight and pressure of a mountain er time turn shale into slate?
Metamorphic rocks
What metamorphic rock is formed when shale and basalt are heated?
Slate is the metamorphic rock formed from shale. A pile of mud can turn into shale (a fine-grained sedimentary rock) with relatively low pressure, about 3 mi (5 km) down into the earth. With more pressure and some heat, shale can transform into slate. Metamorphic rock found closer to Earth's surface, or produced by low pressure, characteristically splits or flakes into layers of varying thickness. This is called foliation. Slate is often used as roofing tiles and paving stones.
