Many kinds of rocks both of igneous and sedimentary nature eg; Limestone (sedimentary ) to marble or granite or diorite (igneous) to gneiss.
Shale is a sedimentaory rock, while Slate is a metamorphic rock. Generally the shale is metamorphosed into slate.
A metamorphic rock.
The Shale is not a metamorphic rock it is a sedimentary rock.
marble
The 3 basic rock types are igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks, which can all be changed or metamorphosed by heat and pressure.
Marble (metamorphosed limestone) Slate (metamorphosed shale) Gneiss (metamorphosed granite)
when shale is subjected to heat and pressure, it can be metamorphosed into slate.
Slate--metamorphosed shale or mudstone.Phyllite--metamorphosed slate.Quartzite--metamorphosed sandstone.
Shale can be metamorphosed into slate through the process of low-grade regional metamorphism, which involves heat and pressure causing the minerals within the shale to recrystallize into a fine-grained, foliated structure characteristic of slate.
Slate is metamorphosed shale.
Slate is metamorphosed shale or mudstone.
Shale is a sedimentaory rock, while Slate is a metamorphic rock. Generally the shale is metamorphosed into slate.
A metamorphic rock.
Phyllite is metamorphosed slate, which is also a metamorphic rock. Shale or mudstone is the protolith (parent rock) of slate.
If the mud has lithified into shale or mudstone, then metamorphosed, the answer would be slate.
Shale can metamorphose into slate, which can metamorphose into phyllite, which can metamorphose into schist, which can metamorphose into gneiss.
Yes, contact metamorphism can change a shale into a phyllite. Shale is a fine-grained sedimentary rock that can undergo low-grade metamorphism when exposed to high temperatures and pressures near a magmatic intrusion. This process can transform the shale into a phyllite, which is a low-grade metamorphic rock with a glossy sheen and wavy foliation.
