Gneiss metamorphosed from shale, sandstone, granite and conglomerate.
The metamorphic process that turns sandstone into gneiss is called regional metamorphism. This process involves high temperature and pressure conditions deep within the Earth's crust, causing the minerals in the sandstone to recrystallize and align in layers to form gneiss. The distinctive banding and foliation of gneiss are a result of this intense metamorphic transformation.
Gneiss is neither limestone nor sandstone. Gneiss is a metamorphic rock that forms from the transformation of pre-existing rocks such as granite or sedimentary rocks under high heat and pressure. The resulting gneiss typically exhibits banded layers of minerals.
Sandstone turns into gneiss through a process called recrystallization, which occurs under high temperatures and pressures deep within the Earth's crust. During this process, the mineral composition and texture of the sandstone are altered, resulting in the formation of gneiss, a metamorphic rock with distinct layering and a high degree of foliation.
If broken down it turns into sandstone. If morphed it turns into gneiss.
The daughter rock of granite is gneiss. Gneiss forms from the metamorphism of granite, where the minerals in the granite recrystallize and align into distinct bands or layers, giving gneiss its characteristic appearance.
Granite, Gneiss and then the sedimentary rocks like Sandstone and Limestone.
Sandstone is changed into quartzite and basalt is changed into schist or gneiss through the process of metamorphism.
Granite, gneiss, sandstone, and schist. Possibly more than that.
A coarsely foliated rock with a banded appearance is called a gneiss. Gneiss forms from the metamorphism of existing rocks, typically granite or sedimentary rocks like shale or sandstone, resulting in distinct banding of different minerals.
Sandstone can metamorphose into quartzite.
No, certainly limestone could not occur as a lunar material as they are biological products. The others too are a result of terrestrial geological processes - sandstone, slate, gneiss - that have not occurred on the moon. However it is possible that the minerals talc (unlikely) and quarts (very likley) would be present in lunar rocks.
