What is a type of metamorphic rock in which mineral grains grow and rearrange but do not form layers?
schist
How do metamorphic rock type forms?
Metamorphic rock is made from a large amount of heat and pressure. Under the serface of the earth this usually takes place very close to the core of the earth, so it is very hot. that creates the heat. Pressure from layers and layers of sediment pileing up, combined with heat, makes a metamorphic rock.
