Would gneiss be more likely to form at shallow depths or at great depths where mountains are being pushed up?

Gneiss is more likely to form at great depths where mountains are being pushed up, typically in regions undergoing high pressure and temperature conditions associated with deep crustal or subduction zone environments. Shallow depths are more conducive to the formation of rocks like granite rather than gneiss.
