Mainly metamorphic, due the intense pressure. Some rocks will bend rather than break causing visible folds. Convergent plate boundaries can also produce igneous rocks from volcanic activity due to the subduction of the lighter crustal plate into the mantel which creates a tremendous amount of heat and pressure. Solidified magma may turn into granite. Magma which is blown out from a volcano may take the form of pumice, lava, obsidian, among others.
It all depends on what is around the plate. If you have a volcano at the plate you will probally find Igneous rocks, some of the common rocks are Obsidian, Rhyolite, Gabbro, and Diorite. You will more than likely find the common Sandstone around somewhere. The thrid type typically found around mine sites and maybe at SOME earthquake sites is Metamorphic rocks, such as Granite, Gneiss, and the common rock around the mine sites Shale
Igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks can all be found at convergent plate boundaries.
metamorphic rock
Metamorphic rocks
Igneous Rocks.
The process of upwelling magma is found a divergent boundaries. As this magma nears the surface it decompresses, and some of it flows onto the surface of the Earth as lava. Magma that solidifies beneath the surface of the Earth hardens into gabbro while lava on the surface of the Earth hardens into basalt. Both of these are igneous rocks. Metamorphic rocks are formed from the heat flowing from the igneous rocks. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the sediments collecting in the basins created from rifting (that is, the divergent boundaries). Metamorphic and sedimentary rocks are not considered to be formed at divergent boundaries.
Metamorphic rocks are formed through high pressure and temperature. At tectonic boundaries there are abundances of both.
Divergent boundaries are found by the crystallization of rocks. They are also found by ingeneous rocks
a) Divergent Plate Boundaries: Divergent plate boundaries are locations where plates are moving away from one another. This occurs above rising convection currents. b) Convergent Plate Boundaries: Convergent plate boundaries are locations where lithospheric plates are moving towards one another. The plate collisions that occur in these areas can produce earthquakes, volcanic activity and crustal deformation. c) Transform Boundary: Transform Plate Boundaries are locations where two plates slide past one another. The fracture zone that forms a transform plate boundary is known as a transform fault. Most transform faults are found in the ocean basin and connect offsets in the mid-ocean ridges.
magma can make igneous rocks! igneous rocks are new rocks found in the earths crust formed around the plate boundaries. Magma from the mantle rises upwards towards the surface forming igneous rocks when it cools eg:-basalt ,granite
Basaltic
At mid-ocean ridges which are divergent plate boundaries.

dont no
The type of stress that causes rocks to pull apart is a tension stress. It is the major type of stress found in divergent plate boundaries.

Rocks being pulled apart are under tension. This is found at divergent plate boundaries. It is a tension fault.

Hi when to plates pul apart under the ocean its called tectonic plate drift or contenetial drift.This allows countries to moves centimetres evvey year in any direction the plate travels.sometimes the plates rub and can cause earthquakes ,volcanos or tsunamis.
