Metamorphism
Metamorphosis require heat, pressure and time and is an extension of lithification, but it can occur on any rocks type (including metamorphic rocks). There is a continuum of type from heat dominated (marble) to pressure dominated (blueschist). Metamorphism is ranked in terms of a grade. A high grade...

Metamorphism
The process by which rocks are changed by heating and / or squashing. As rocks are buried over millions of years, they are exposed to heat and pressure from the overlying rocks and from movements within the Earth's crust. This causes changes in their properties. The heat can make the minerals which ...
