All rock types, igneous, sedimentary, and even metamorphic can be altered to new metamorphic rock.
Any type of rock can become metamorphic.
Any type of rock can become metamorphic.
The nickname for metamorphic rock is "a changed rock".
Metamorphic rocks are those which have changed type due to heat, presssure or some other geologic agent.
Yes, when the metamorphic rock melts and becomes magma there is a chance that it can become a new type of rock.
Any rock, be it igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic, can be changed into a metamorphic rock through increased pressure and/or temperature.
Metamorphic rocks are those which have changed type due to heat, presssure or some other geologic agent.
Metamorphic rock is a type of rock that has been changed from its original form through heat, pressure, or chemical processes. This transformation often occurs deep within the Earth's crust. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and gneiss.
metamorphic rock
The original rock that exists before it undergoes metamorphism is called a parent rock or protolith. This parent rock can be any type of rock, such as sedimentary, igneous, or another metamorphic rock, that is subjected to high temperature and pressure to form a metamorphic rock.
It can be any type of rock. If heat and pressure deep in the Earth changed it, it is a metamorphic rock. If sediments of sand or other rocks compacted/cemented together, it's a sedimentary rock. If magma from a volcano cools, (on the outside of a volcano) it's an igneous rock.
Metamorphic rock is natural. It is rock that has been changed by exposure to high temperature or high pressure. "Metamorphic" means "changed."
