The protolith of metaconglomerate is a sedimentary rock called conglomerate. Conglomerate is composed of rounded gravel-sized clasts that are cemented together. Through the process of metamorphism, this sedimentary rock undergoes changes in temperature and pressure to form metaconglomerate.
Metaconglomerate rocks are metamorphic rocks that form from the recrystallization of conglomerate rocks under high heat and pressure. They typically have a banded appearance due to the reorientation of minerals like quartz, feldspar, and mica. Metaconglomerates often have a medium to coarse grain size and exhibit strong foliation due to the alignment of mineral grains during metamorphism.
Any rock that becomes molten and then solidifies underground will be classified as an intrusive igneous rock.
Another name for gold is "aurum," which is its Latin name.
I think you meant a scientific name. A scientific name is the two-part name used to refer to a species. For example:Homo sapiens is the scientific name of the human species.Felis catus is the scientific name of the housecat species.Loxodonta africana is the scientific name of the African elephant species.Quercus alba is the scientific name of the white oak species.
"Metaconglomerate" is the name given to a conglomerate after undergoing metamorphism.
Metamorphosed sedimentary conglomerate is referred to as metaconglomerate.
Metaconglomerate is a metamorphis rock! :)
Metaconglomerate is a "metamorphic" rock whose parent rock type was a sedimentary rock.
No, metaconglomerate is a metamorphic rock, hence the "meta-" addition in front of the usually sedimentary rock conglomerate.
Conglomerate Rock.
Conglomerate Rock.
Metaconglomerate.
Granite, quartzite, marble, metaconglomerate, and many more rocks just to name a few. :-D
It is called metaconglomerate.
