3 Main Rock Types
Metamorphic rocks form from HEAT&PRESSURE
Contact Metamorphism
- Deep underground, zones of metamorphism form around the hot magma of batholiths.
- L.Gardiner/Windows Original
Regional Metamorphism
- Tectonic forces smash continents together. The rocks get heated and become semi-molten. The added pressure causes the mineral to separate into bands and sometime to even flow before cooling again!
