Understand that metamorphic rocks are those that have changed in some way by heat or pressure or both. Sedimentary rocks are formed from sediments and igneous rocks are formed by fire. When these rocks change again, they become metamorphic. Marble is one type of metamorphic rock.Look at the way the grain are formed. In schist rocks, you can see that the layers and the grains all go the same way. Warning Metamorphic rocks are difficult to classify because different amounts of heat or pressure to the same rock can look different.

Is Kimberlite a metamorphic rock?

How metmorphic rock form?
Metamorphic rocks are rocks which have changed from one form to another due to intense heat or pressure. Any rock (sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous) can be changed into a metamorphic rock.
What process turns rock from one type to another?
Metamorphic rock cycle
What type of rocks are metamorphic rocks formed from?
Any rock can become a metamorphic rock. To become a metamorphic rock the rock must undergo heat and/or pressure, but not so much that the rock melts. Should the rock melt it would become an igneous rock.
How can you tell one metamorphic rock to another metamorphic rock?
Well it is pretty easy here it goes: A metamorphic rock will display foliation or bands around the rock.
What kind of rock forms from melting sedimentary rock?
metamorphic is the next one but just type in the rock cycle it'll tell you!
Where can one find metamorphic rock?
One can find a metamorphic rock in a variety of locations. Some of the places where one can find a metamorphic rock include the base of mountains and within the Earth's crust.
What is one thing that change a rock to a metamorphic rock?
Heat and pressure change rocks to metamorphic!
Can sedimentary rock form directly from metamorphic rock?
yes it can- metamorphic has to change into one type of rock after it is changed from another.
What is the def Metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rock is rock that has changed as a result of constant heat, pressure, or both. One good example is granite.

How can a igneous rock change into a metaphoric rock?
I presume you mean Metamorphic. A metamorphic rock is one that has been changed by heat and pressure. An igneous rock that is exposed to heat can be changed.
What type of rock can form metamorphic rocks?
Any rock can undergo metamorphism, be it sedimentary, igneous or even the transformation of one type of metamorphic rock to another.
How metmorphic rock form?
Metamorphic rocks are rocks which have changed from one form to another due to intense heat or pressure. Any rock (sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous) can be changed into a metamorphic rock.
