Introduction

Metamorphic rocks classified by their properties and formation

8 words

Main Body

Metamorphic rocks characterised by poor quality mineral composition and less aquiferous properties. They have porous interior with loss of material at surface.

Nature made of Origas (geological origin):

i) Igneous - formed from volcanic activity, then solidified after cooling

ii) Sedimentary - formed from call compaction and lithification of deposited material

iii) Metamorphic - formed through pressure, temperature action by local crust activity below mountain ranges

All rocks follow an essentially cyclical pattern in their formation, progressing from one stage to another.
