Erosion
When igneous rocks are crushed and compacted into sediment
Erosion would most likely lead to deposition, compaction, and cementation, processes involved in the creation of sedimentary rock.
The processes would be, in order of their occurrence: weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation.
Yes, additional pressure and heat will lead to further metamorphism. The reference used to describe this is called the 'degree of metamorphism'. For instance, the sedimentary rock shale can become the low grade metamorphic rock slate. In the next degree of metamorphism, slate can become phyllite. Phyllite can then become schist, and finally gneiss. Migmatite is the highest grade metamorphic rock, but has been partially melted.
lead is not a rock but the rock 'Galena' is and it is a sedimentary rock.
Erosion. If a metamorphic rock is exposed above sea level it will erode or weather, the products from this erosion or weathering will be moved by gravity, wind or water to a sea or basin where the products will settle as a sediment. If the conditions are right the sediment will eventually become a sedimentary rock.
When igneous rocks are crushed and compacted into sediment
The large rock weathers. Its particles are eroded to a place of deposition. The particles are compacted and cemented together, forming a new sedimentary rock. This is a simplified explanation of the process.

Zinc is a mineral in its natural state as sphalerite (ZnS), which is a compound of Zinc and Sulphur. It is normally found along with other igneous type minerals such as copper, lead and iron.
sedimentary rock formed by the denudational process of various activity. the sediments in sea water may deposited and thus lead to the formation of sedimentary rock

Galena is a mineral, not a rock, but is commonly found emplaced in sedimentary rock from hydrothermal deposition in faults and fissures.
Heat and pressure lead to the formation of metamorphic rocks.
the origin of lead ore is contact metamorphic origin
Sedimentary rocks are formed on or near the Earth’s surface, in contrast to metamorphic and igneous rocks, which are formed deep within the Earth. The most important geological processes that lead to the creation of sedimentary rocks are erosion, weathering, dissolution, precipitation, and lithification.
