Metamorphic Rocks
• Igneous, sedimentary, and even metamorphic rocks may be transformed by heat, pressure, and/or chemical reactions into metamorphic rocks.

• Metamorphic rocks may change into other kinds of metamorphic rocks.
• Metamorphic rocks may be remelted and become igneous rocks.

Metamorphic Rocks
• Foliated – from Latin “folia” meaning leaves as in pages of a book.– Bands or stripes are
visible on the rocks
• Nonfoliated– No bands or stripes
appear on the rock
gneiss
quartzite

Metamorphic Rock
• Foliated Rock – minerals are arranged in stripes, bands, or wavy lines. The mineral crystals are usually flat and line up with each other.

Metamorphic Rock
• Nonfoliated Metamorphic Rock-– Made of only a few minerals which are not arranged in
bands or stripes.
