Contact metamorphism occurs when magma intrudes or forces its way into existing rock. The heat of the magma bakes the surrounding rocks causing them to change. This is a local event. The changes due to contact metamorphism are relatively small and are said to be low-grade metamorphism. An ex...

High temperatures can encourage chemical changes and diffusion. Heat and pressure can also force some minerals to decompose and/or separate from the host rock. For example, calcite is unstable at high temperatures and will decompose into lime (CaO) and carbon dioxide (CO2). These are the ...
{Section title='context !!!Metamorphic Rocks Metamorphic rock can be formed from sedimentary and igneous rock as well as from another metamorphic rock. There are specific changes these rocks go through to form metamorphic rock. Answer and Explanation: ...
Figure 4.14: This diagram shows hot magma within the earth contacting various rock layers. This is an example of contact metamorphism. It is important to note that metamorphism does not cause complete melting of the initial rock. It only causes changes to a rock by heat or pressure. The rear...
After a sedimentary rock (an eroded igneous rock ) has suffered high levels of heat and pressure, a metamorphic rock is created. ...from below the outer Earth's
If a rock changes into a metamorphic rock most of the characteristics of the arc can change. Such changes take place that the newly formed metamorphic rock may not have any resemblance with its original rock. The important characteristics of metamorphic rocks are the following: ...
. Metamorphic rocks are formed when igneous, sedimentary, or other metamorphic rocks undergo a physical change due to extreme heat and pressure. These changes often produce folded layers and veins in the rocks, and they can also cause pockets of precious minerals to form. See Table atrock....
