What causes contact metamorphism?
contact metamorphism occurs when hot magma bakes rocks
Minerals in rock near a volcano recrystallize as lava covers the area--the minerals change due to the lava's?
The minerals in the country rock might change due to the effects of the heat in a process known as contact metamorphism.
Would contact metamorphism or regional metamorphism be a product of 2 plates colliding?
Two plates colliding will generate both regional and contact metamorphism. The point of contact would have contact metamorphism while surrounding parts would be regionally metamophrsed.
What are the Three types of metamorphism?
contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism
Describe how contact metamorphism is different from regional metamorphism?
contact metamorphism is what happens when something is really hot. regional metamorphism on the other hand involves much larger packages of rocks.
If metamorphism occurs due to heat generated by magma it is called metamorphism?
It is called contact metamorphism.
What are the 4 types of metamorphism?
contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism
Which kind of metamorphism occurs next to an intrusion of molten magma?
Contact metamorphism can occur in this scenario.
What is the difference between regional and contact metamorphose?
Contact metamorphism is a type of metamorphismwhere rock minerals and texture are changed, mainly by heat, due to contact with magma.
Minerals in rock near a volcano recrystallize as lava covers the area--the minerals change due to the lava's?
The minerals in the country rock might change due to the effects of the heat in a process known as contact metamorphism.
What causes contact metamorphism?
contact metamorphism occurs when hot magma bakes rocks
What is the difference between contact and metamorphism?
Contact metamorphism is metamorphism that happens when preexisting rock comes in contact with a molten rock or magma and it melts locally.Regional metamorphism is metamorphism happens when two plates collide the plate that subducts can melt by the heated area.
Ore bodies at divergent plate boundaries can be created through what contact metamorphism regional metamorphism hydrothermal process?
Contact metamorphism
Would contact metamorphism or regional metamorphism be a product of 2 plates colliding?
Two plates colliding will generate both regional and contact metamorphism. The point of contact would have contact metamorphism while surrounding parts would be regionally metamophrsed.
How is contact metamorphism different. from regional metamorphism?
contact metamorphism is what happens when something is really hot. regional metamorphism on the other hand involves much larger packages of rocks.
