A mixture of sand and clay, mudstone, metamorphose (process of changing from one type of rock into a metamorphic rock) into gneiss rocks or schist rocks. The mudstones would change under heat and pressure to make the new Metamorphic rocks.

What turns sandstone into gneiss?
Heat and Pressure
Put some heat and pressure on granite and you'll get?
Gneiss, if the heat and pressure are sufficient.
What happens to granite when it is subjected to high heat and pressure?
It metamorphoses into gneiss
If granite were subjected to intense heat and pressure it would likely change to?
gneiss
What type of rock forms when heat and pressure is put on granite?
A granitic gneiss.
What turns sandstone into gneiss?
Heat and Pressure
Put some heat and pressure on granite and you'll get?
Gneiss, if the heat and pressure are sufficient.
How does Granite turn to gneiss?
by adding heat and pressure
How does the rock granite change to the rock gneiss?
Heat and pressure
What does granite rock turn into after heat and pressure?
Granite will become gneiss.
When granite is changed by heat and pressure it becomes what metamorphic rock?
gneiss
What happens to granite when it is subjected to high heat and pressure?
It metamorphoses into gneiss
When shale is exposed to heat and pressure this metamorphic rock is formed?
gneiss
What causes granite to transform into gneiss?
It is impossible for granite to turn into gneiss it is a scientific impossibility that cannot be done with only heat and pressure :)
If granite were subjected to intense heat and pressure it would likely change to?
gneiss
What type of rock forms when heat and pressure is put on granite?
A granitic gneiss.
What metamorphic rock does granite turn into after heat and pressure?
Granite will become gneiss.
