The metamorphic rock at location A The photograph shows a large outcrop of rock composed primarily of isible crystals of mica, quartz, and feldspar. Based on the composition and foliated texture, this rock can best be identified as (l) marble (3) slate SChlSt (4) anthracite coal 17 is most likely (1) marble

Rocks & Minerals

Each rock group is further subdivided into subgroups that are defined by the mode of origin of the rocks. Igneous rocks form when magma, molten rock, rises upward toward the surface and are classified into two types on the basis of texture (grain size) and composition. Metamorphic rocks form when changes in the composition and/or texture of a rock

METAMORPHIC ROCKS & PROCESSES

metamorphic rocks allows geologists to assess the temperatures and pressures the parent rock encountered. • Knowledge of metamorphic processes and rocks is valuable, because metamorphic minerals and rocks have economic value. For example, slate and marble are building materials, garnets are used as gemstones

Metamorphic Facies

The complete set of T-P conditions that a rock may experience during a metamorphic cycle from burial to metamorphism (and orogeny) to uplift and erosion is called a pressure-temperature-time path, or P-T-t path 40. Pressure-Temperature-Time (P-T-t) Paths Metamorphic P-T-t paths may be addressed by:
