Which type of rock igneous or metamorphic contains fossils?
Metamorphic rocks do not typically contain fossils, as the intense heat and pressure involved in their formation often destroy any remnants of organic matter. Igneous rocks are formed from molten material and do not contain fossils. Sedimentary rocks, which form from the accumulation and compression of sediments, are the type of rock that commonly contain fossils.
Why are most fossils found in sedimentary rock such as shall and limestone rather than igneous and metamorphic rock?
Because Igneous Rocks was made from magma or lava and Sedimentary Rocks are made found underwater where a bunch of rubbish is lying around and they add them together and Metamorphic Rocks were either from Igneous or Sedimentary Rocks so they could also be filled with fossils.
What type of rock can be either foilated or non-foliated?
Metamorphic rock can be either foliated or non-foliated. Foliated metamorphic rocks have layered or banded textures, while non-foliated metamorphic rocks lack these layers and have a more uniform appearance. Examples of foliated metamorphic rocks include schist and gneiss, while examples of non-foliated metamorphic rocks include marble and quartzite.
Who is correct a metamorphic rock is formed from a sedimentary rock or a metamorphic rock can form from an igneous rock?
A metamorphic rock can form from either a sedimentary rock or an igneous rock. When subjected to high heat and pressure, existing rocks can recrystallize and change into new types of rocks, resulting in the formation of metamorphic rocks.
What was gneiss before it undertook heat and pressure?
A mixture of sand and clay, mudstone, metamorphose (process of changing from one type of rock into a metamorphic rock) into gneiss rocks or schist rocks. The mudstones would change under heat and pressure to make the new Metamorphic rocks.
Which type of rock igneous or metamorphic contains fossils?
Metamorphic rocks do not typically contain fossils, as the intense heat and pressure involved in their formation often destroy any remnants of organic matter. Igneous rocks are formed from molten material and do not contain fossils. Sedimentary rocks, which form from the accumulation and compression of sediments, are the type of rock that commonly contain fossils.
What three main rock has has fossil?
The three main types of rock that can contain fossils are sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. However, fossils are primarily found in sedimentary rocks, as they form from the accumulation of sediment and organic material, allowing for the preservation of plant and animal remains. Igneous rocks typically form from cooled magma or lava and rarely contain fossils due to the high temperatures involved in their formation. Metamorphic rocks, which are formed under heat and pressure, generally do not preserve fossils either.
Why are most fossils found in sedimentary rock such as shall and limestone rather than igneous and metamorphic rock?
Because Igneous Rocks was made from magma or lava and Sedimentary Rocks are made found underwater where a bunch of rubbish is lying around and they add them together and Metamorphic Rocks were either from Igneous or Sedimentary Rocks so they could also be filled with fossils.
Are metamorphic rock only made out of from igneous?
No, metamorphic can be formed by either igneous or sedimetary rock.
Where are mold fossils located?
mold fossils are either located near water or cliffs.
What happens to a fossil when the sedimentary rock it was in turned into a metamorphic rock?
As in what process causes this? if so it is usually under heat and pressure. Depending on what kind of rick it is depends on the resultant metamorphic rock e.g Shale-->Slate etc
What type of rock can be either foilated or non-foliated?
Metamorphic rock can be either foliated or non-foliated. Foliated metamorphic rocks have layered or banded textures, while non-foliated metamorphic rocks lack these layers and have a more uniform appearance. Examples of foliated metamorphic rocks include schist and gneiss, while examples of non-foliated metamorphic rocks include marble and quartzite.
Can igneus rock get destroyed?
How are igneous rocks destroyed? - Quora. Igneous rocks are either ground to sand by erosion or buried under heat and pressure, converted into metamorphic rocks. ... Finally, they can just sit there, buried but too near the surface to face any significant heat or pressure, for a very long time.
What type of rock can either be foliated or non foliated?
metamorphic
Can an metamorphic rock turn into either a igneous or a sedimentary rock?
yes. it can turn into either one
If it is not a sedimentary rock what kind of rock is it?
Either metamorphic or igneous.
