What type of rock forms when heat and pressure change one type of rock into another?
Changes in the structure, texture, or mineralogy of existing rocks will create a metamorphic rock. Metamorphism can result from the effects of heat and/or pressure, or from the addition of ions from heated fluids. Examples of metamorphic rock are slate, schist, and gneiss.
What rock forms by pressure on large masses of rock?
Metamorphic rock forms by the pressure on large masses of rock, causing the existing minerals in the rock to recrystallize without melting, resulting in new minerals and textures. Examples of metamorphic rocks include marble, slate, and schist.
