What is 2 types of metamorphic rocks?
Metamorphic rocks are formed by the process of extreme heat, pressure and other chemicals. Two types of metamorphism are dynamic which makes the pressure and extreme heat and thermal which is caused by the heat of magma from a volcanic eruption.
How does Burial metamorphism differ from Regional and Contact metamorphism?
Burial metamorphism differs from regional and contact metamorphism in that it is the result of rocks being buried deeper into the earth's crust through tectonic movements.
When rocks stack up on each other what metamorphism can occurr?
Burial metamorphism.
What metamorphic rock forms from sandstone?
Quartzite is the metamorphic rock that forms from sandstone. During the process of metamorphism, the sandstone is subjected to heat and pressure, causing the grains to recrystallize and fuse together, resulting in the formation of quartzite.
Bural metamorphism occurs when hot magma or lava comes in contact with rock?
No. This is contatc metamorphism. Burial metamorphism occurs when rock is altered due to the weight of overlying rock.
What are the types of rock metamorphism?
Types of metamorphism are Contact Metamorphism Regional Metamorphism Cataclastic Metamorphism Hydrothermal Metamorphism Burial Metamorphism Shock Metamorphism (Impact Metamorphism)
When a rock changes due to surrounding pressure on all sides?
Burial metamorphism

Burial metamorphism.
What is used to turn shale into slate?
Shale (a sedimentary rock) transforms naturally into slate (a metamorphic rock) after millions of years of burial deep in the crust under high temperature and pressure. It it not possible to artificially transform shale into slate.
What metamorphic rock forms from sandstone?
Quartzite is the metamorphic rock that forms from sandstone. During the process of metamorphism, the sandstone is subjected to heat and pressure, causing the grains to recrystallize and fuse together, resulting in the formation of quartzite.
When rocks stack up on each other metamorphism can occur.?
burial
At which location is burial metamorphism most likely to occur?
Convergent boundary
When rocks stack on each other blank metamorphism can occur?
Burial
What are three types of metamorphism?
Contact, dynamic, burial, regional, and impact.
When a rock changes because of surrounding pressure?
Burial Metamorphism :) <3
