Is sand a metamorphic?

No. Sandstone is sedimentary rock, where the individual grains of sand that compose the rock are visible without magnification. These individual grains of sand (sediment) have become compacted and cemented together in a process called lithification, forming a sedimentary rock.Metamorphic rock can be formed from virtually any parent rock (protolith) that has been subjected to heat and/or pressure, modifying its texture or mineral composition.Quartz sandstone, when metamorphosed, becomes the metamorphic rock 'quartzite'.


What is the difference between schist and phyllite?

Texture and metamorphic grade. Schist has visible crystals, while phyllite has crystals too small to be seen with the eye or barely seen. This is a result of schist having higher grade metamorphism.
