Igneous rocks are rocks that are type of rock that forms from molten rock.
A sedimentary rock is formed.

The high temperatures required for metamorphism ultimately are derived from Earth's eternal heat, either through deep burial or from nearby igneous intrusions. The high pressures required for metamorphism can be generated in two ways: from vertical pressure caused by the weight of overlying rock, or from the compressive forces generated as rocks are deformed during mountain building.
Igneous rocks
Heat and pressure from overlying rock layers (or heat from adjacent magma) causes the atoms of the original rock to ionize and recrystallize. Metamorphic rocks are more dense and structurally stable than the 'protolith' from which they are formed.
