What mineral is common in schist and gneiss but not common is slate and phyllite?
The mineral common in schist and gneiss but not common in slate and phyllite is garnet. Garnet typically forms in higher-grade metamorphic rocks such as schist and gneiss due to the increased temperature and pressure conditions necessary for its formation.
When the metamorphic rock schist is heated and squeezed it forms what?
When schist is further heated and squeezed, it can form gneiss, another type of metamorphic rock. Gneiss is characterized by its banded texture and high-grade metamorphism.
What rocks contain mica?
I'm not sure of the specifics, but metamorphic rocks usually have it. Yo face
Can you describe the 4 rocks formed by metamorphic grade which are Slate Phyllite Schist and Gneiss?
Slate is a low-grade metamorphic rock characterized by fine-grained foliated structure. Phyllite is intermediate-grade metamorphic rock with a greater degree of crystallization and foliation than slate. Schist is a medium-grade metamorphic rock with visible mineral grains and strong foliation. Gneiss is a high-grade metamorphic rock with distinct banding of light and dark minerals and high crystallization.
What is the metamorphic progression of shale?
Shale can transform into slate, then phyllite, followed by schist, and ultimately into gneiss through a series of increasing metamorphic changes. This progression involves the recrystallization of minerals under heat and pressure, resulting in the formation of different textures and new mineral compositions at each stage.

What is gneiss and schist?
Both are foliated metamorphic rocks in which individual minerals can be seen with the naked eye. The difference is that gneiss is generally more coarsely crystalline and has color banding and schist smells bad.

When schist is further heated and squeezed, it can form gneiss, another type of metamorphic rock. Gneiss is characterized by its banded texture and high-grade metamorphism.

What is a metamorphic rock made from schist?
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock formed when intense heat and/or pressure is applied to it's parent rock schist.
Name four metamorphic rocks?
Four of the metamorphic rocks are gneiss,slate,marble and schist.
What metamorphic rocks are formed from mudstones?
Slate,schist,gneiss are the metamorphic rock formed from mudstone.
What are four examples of metamorphic rock?
Slate, hornfels, schist, gneiss.
What other rocks are in the metamorphic rock family?
Marble Gneiss Schist
What is the origin of a gneiss rock?
Gneiss is a metamorphic rock and its parent rock (protolith) could be a granite or schist.
What is a mineral that is after phyllite and before gneiss?
Not a mineral but a rock. Schist comes asfter phyllite ut before gneiss.
