If it is squeezed and heated sufficiently to realign the minerals or form new minerals, it is called a metamorphic rock.
If it is squeezed and heated enough to melt, then solidify, it would be called an igneous rock.
Metamorphic rock can naturally form from an existing sedimentary, igneous, or existing metamorphic rock due to exposure to heat and/or pressure.

Metamorphic rocks
When metamorphic rocks are heated, the minerals within the rock may undergo recrystallization, transforming into new minerals. This process can lead to the development of new textures and structures in the rock. However, excessive heat can cause the minerals to melt and reform as igneous rocks.
Yes, a metamorphic rocks is an existing rock that has been transformed via heat and pressure.
When older rocks, plants, and other loose material get pressed or cemented together

Sedimentary rocks are heated and pressed together.
Yes, a metamorphic rocks is an existing rock that has been transformed via heat and pressure.
The squeezing together of rocks is called compression. If the rock is squeezed and heated sufficiently to realign and form new minerals, a metamorphic rock is formed. It this rock melts and solidifies, it would become igneous rock.Ê
Intrusive rocks are formed when rock is squeezed into underground cavities in other types of rock, where it crystallizes.
Metamorphic rocks are formed when the minerals in a rock are change chemically. Normally these rocks are near magma and get heated up, but do not melt.
a type of rock formed by layers of sediments that were squeezed and stuck together over a long time
