بيت /regional metamorphism grade
Buchan metamorphism is common, and a number of Buchan belts have been described from various parts of the world, notably Spain and Japan. Other localities include Maine, New Hampshire, Colorado, Oregon, Alaska, Australia, India, and Ireland. The lowgrade assemblages are virtually identical to those of the Barrovian Facies Series described below.

In Barrovian metamorphism there are three facies. Commonly we call then low, middle, and high grade metamorphism, but geologically they are the greenschist facies, amphibolite facies, and granulite facies. Everything in Barrovian metamorphism is in reference to these three facies, or conditions of metamorphism.

A if granular texture is characteristic of some metamorphic rocks. Note: As the grade of metamorphism increases (more temperature and pressure), both crystal size and the coarseness of foliation increase. Therefore, gneiss represents more intense metamorphism (or a higher grade) than does schist.

Regional metamorphism is usually found where continents collide, due to Continental Drift (plate tectonics). They are larger areas of rocks, usually in mountains formed by the colliding of continents, where the local rocks have been smushed togeth...

Contact metamorphism and regional metamorphism have different proximate causes, affect areas of different sizes and produce different types of rock. Generally, contact metamorphism only occurs where hot magma has intruded on lowpressure surface rock and exposed the surrounding area to .

Slate is an extremely dense, finegrained metamorphic rock form under lowgrade regional metamorphism emerged from pelitic sedimentary rocks such as shales and finegrained tuffs (Table ). The level of precrystallization of primary minerals witness very weak changes under the increase of only directed pressure and low temperature.

The mineral assemblages and the compositions of the ferromagnesian minerals in the cordierite rocks of this region are dependent primarily on the bulk composition of the rocks and variations in the mineral species that comprise the rocks and, to a lesser degree, on the grade of metamorphism. Biotite and cordierite are markedly more magnesian in ...

Introduction to Metamorphic Rocks Contact Metamorphism. Contact metamorphism is so named because it occurs usually around the margins of an igneous intrusion where hot magma has come in contact with colder country is a diagram to illustrate contact metamorphism..

High grade metamorphism changes the rock so completely that the source rock often cannot be readily identified. Foliation. Alteration of rock texture by metamorphism commonly results in a rearrangement of mineral particles into a parallel alignment, called foliation, as a result of directed stress. ...

The higher the temperature of metamorphism, the higher the metamorphic grade. Most metamorphic rocks form during regional metamorphism, where whole sectors of the crust are pressurized and heated, forcing large volumes of rock to recrystallize into new minerals that are stable under the new conditions. As a result, rocks are changed into ...

Under low grade regional metamorphism, the hightemperature Caplagioclase is converted to the lowtemperature Naplagioclase, albite, while the anhydrous pyroxene and olivine are replaced by the hydrous minerals chlorite, epidote and actinolite (an amphibole).
