What are two events that result in catalastic metamorphism?
Two events that can result in cataclastic metamorphism are faulting, which involves the grinding and crushing of rocks along a fault zone, and impact cratering, where the intense pressure and heat generated by a meteorite impact cause rocks to be deformed and recrystallized.
What are two ways that can poduce metamorphic rocks?
Two ways in which metamorphic rocks are 1) contact metamorphism (thermal) where magma comes in direct contact with surrounding igneous rock and changes it due to high temperatures and usually low pressure. 2) Regional metamorphism (dynamothermal) ,high pressures and low temperature eg mountain ranges. or 3) Cataclastic metamorphism, heat as a result of friction due to two plate meeting or passing each other.
What are the 4 types of metamorphism?
contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism
If metamorphism occurs due to heat generated by magma it is called metamorphism?
It is called contact metamorphism.
Which kind of metamorphism occurs next to an intrusion of molten magma?
Contact metamorphism occurs next to an intrusion of molten magma. This type of metamorphism happens when hot magma comes into contact with existing rock, causing the rock to undergo changes in mineralogy and texture due to the heat and pressure.
Which type of metamorphism is most likely to occur along the fault line?
Dynamic Metamorphism >.<
What are the types of rock metamorphism?
Types of metamorphism are Contact Metamorphism Regional Metamorphism Cataclastic Metamorphism Hydrothermal Metamorphism Burial Metamorphism Shock Metamorphism (Impact Metamorphism)

Describe the 4 kinds of metamophism?
Cataclastic meta rocks are formed from rocks grinding past each other in fault zones. Burial metamorphism creates altered rock simply from overburden pressure. Contact metamorphism occurs from exposure to heat from an intrusive magma body. Regional metamorphism occurs from pressure and heat caused by tectonic forces.

What are the four types of metamorphism?
The four types of metamorphism are contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism, and hydrothermal metamorphism. Contact metamorphism occurs near igneous intrusions, regional metamorphism happens over large areas due to tectonic forces, dynamic metamorphism occurs along fault zones, and hydrothermal metamorphism involves hot, circulating fluids altering rocks.
What are the Three types of metamorphism?
contact metamorphism, regional metamorphism, dynamic metamorphism
If metamorphism occurs due to heat generated by magma it is called metamorphism?
It is called contact metamorphism.
Which type of metamorphism is associated with orogens?
Regional Metamorphism
How is metamorphism different from regional metamorphism?
contact metamorphism is what happens when something is really hot. regional metamorphism on the other hand involves much larger packages of rocks.
