its forms by contact with hot magma
Metamorphic rocks at hot spots will form mostly by contact and hydrothermal metamorphism as a result of exposure to heat from magma and interaction with hot water respectively.
Metamorphic rocks can form from the transformation of pre-existing rocks under high temperatures and pressures. Common parent rocks include shale, limestone, and granite. The minerals present in the parent rocks determine the types of metamorphic rocks that can form.
Metamorphic rocks form when existing rocks undergo changes in temperature and pressure due to processes such as tectonic plate movement, burial deep within the Earth's crust, or contact with hot intrusions. These changes cause the minerals in the existing rocks to recrystallize and reorganize, leading to the formation of metamorphic rocks.
Metamorphic rocks form when existing rocks are subjected to high temperature, pressure, or chemical changes causing the minerals within the rock to recrystallize. This process can occur deep underground due to tectonic forces or during contact with hot magma. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
Yes. Most likely it would become a metamorphic rock of higher grade. Slate is a low grade metamorphic rock. With increased heat and pressure it will become schist, a high grade metamorphic rock.
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks
Metamorphic rocks can form from both igneous and sedimentary rocks through the process of heat and pressure, but they are more commonly associated with forming from existing metamorphic or sedimentary rocks. Igneous rocks can indirectly contribute to the formation of metamorphic rocks by heating up and altering surrounding rocks, leading to the formation of new metamorphic rocks.

yes, all rocks can form from all others depending on pressure, etc
metamorphic rock
Sedimentary rocks such as shale, limestone, and sandstone can recrystallize to form metamorphic rocks like slate, marble, and quartzite, respectively. Igneous rocks like basalt and granite can also undergo recrystallization to form metamorphic rocks such as greenstone and gneiss.

Metamorphic Rocks are rocks that have changed form due to heat and pressure.
by metamorfism of sandstone.
Igneous rocks can form metamorphic rocks by being subjected to high heat and pressure, causing recrystallization of minerals. Igneous rocks can also weather and erode to form sediment, which can then be deposited, compacted, and cemented to form sedimentary rocks.
