Metamorphic
Metamorphic rocks are formed by the alteration of pre-existing rocks due to high heat and pressure deep within the Earth's crust. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
It is called a metamorphic rock.
When rocks are subjected to great heat and pressure, they can undergo a process called metamorphism, where they change into a different type of rock. For example, shale can metamorphose into slate, which is a type of metamorphic rock. This process typically occurs deep within the Earth's crust.
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock. It is formed form another metamorphic rock called schist (sh-ist). Schist is formed form fine grained sedimentary rock (often shale). While gneiss is formed by great pressure from moving plates of the earth's crust.
That is called a Metamorphic rock. it can take thousands to millions of years to create these but they can be formed pretty quickly too. for example, when a meitor hits the earths surface, it can create metamorphic rocks instantly.

Metamorphism....A metamorphic rock is a rock formed when it undergoes chemical reactions,tremendous heat and great pressure to form a new kind of rock from an existing one.
The type of rock formed when great heat and pressure are applied to existing rock is called metamorphic rock. This process, known as metamorphism, alters the mineral composition and texture of the original rock, which can be either igneous, sedimentary, or even another metamorphic rock. Common examples of metamorphic rocks include schist, gneiss, and marble. These rocks often exhibit distinct foliation or banding due to the directional pressure applied during their formation.

Marble is formed when limestone is subjected to pressure and great heat.
Metamorphic rocks are formed by the alteration of pre-existing rocks through great heat and pressure. This process changes the mineral composition and texture of the original rocks, resulting in the formation of new minerals and textures. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
Heat.
Serpentine is a metamorphic mineral, so it was formed by high heat and great pressure, most often from peridotite.
