Regional metamorphism is the creation of metamorphic rock from large geographically significant processes like plate tectonics. Contact metamorphism is the creation of metamorphic rock from the proximity of an existing rock to a heat source provided by a plutonic intrusion.
It is called contact metamorphism.
Both contact and regional metamorphism result in new types of rock from pre-existing types of rock whether it be from recrystallization, new crystal formation, or realignment of existing minerals.

whatever the f*** it is, nobody gives a darn
Igneous Intrusions
It is called contact metamorphism.
contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism
Contact metamorphism can occur in this scenario.
Contact metamorphism is a type of metamorphismwhere rock minerals and texture are changed, mainly by heat, due to contact with magma.
contact metamorphism occurs when hot magma bakes rocks
The minerals in the country rock might change due to the effects of the heat in a process known as contact 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.
Contact metamorphism
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.
contact metamorphism is what happens when something is really hot. regional metamorphism on the other hand involves much larger packages of rocks.
