-It is the process by which
rocks are change in
composition, texture or
structure by extreme heat
and pressure.
There are 6
types of metamorphism
• Regional metamorphism
• Contact metamorphism
• Burial metamorphism
• Seafloor metamorphism
• Subduction zone metamorphism
• Shock metamorphism
Regional
metamorphism
• During regional
metamorphism, rock layers
are compressed, folded and
buried.
• This happens when a body
of magma intrudes into the
upper part of the crust.
Contact
metamorphism
• This occurs when sediments are
buried deeply enough that the heat
and pressure cause minerals to begin
to recrystallize and new minerals to
grow.
• An oceanic spreading ridge, recently
formed oceanic crust of gabbro and
basalt is slowly moving away from the
plate boundary.
• Where ocean lithosphere is forced
down into the hot mantle, there is a
unique combination of relatively low
temperature and very high pressure.
• When extraterrestrial object hit Earth,
the result is shock wave.
• Result of very high shear stress such as
occurs along fault zone. It occurs at
relatively low temperatures compared
to other types of metamorphism.
