The pressure that affects metamorphic rocks can be grouped into confining pressure and directed stress. Stress is a scientific term indicating a force. Strain is the result of this stress, including metamorphic changes within minerals. Figure 5.6.2 5.6. 2: An illustration of different types of pressure on rocks.

Metamorphic rocks, meta- meaning change and – morphos meaning form, is one of the three rock categories in the rock cycle (see Chapter 1 ). Metamorphic rock material has been changed by temperature, pressure, and/or fluids. The rock cycle shows that both igneous and sedimentary rocks can become metamorphic rocks.

Regional-scale mid-crustal metamorphism in the overriding plate is driven in part by an elevated geotherm above a zone of asthenospheric counter-flow, which also has the effect of thermally weakening the overriding plate. ... The extent of andalusite-grade metamorphism provides a minimum limit on the region affected by metamorphic …
Details
As described above, regional metamorphism occurs when rocks are buried deep in the crust. This is commonly associated with convergent plate boundaries and the formation of mountain ranges. Because burial to 10 km to 20 km is required, the areas affected tend to be large. Rather than focusing on metamorphic rock textures (slate, schist, gneiss ...
Details
The Buchan Facies Series of regional metamorphism is characterized by the presence of andalusite, and sometimes cordierite, in intermediate grade mineral assemblages indicating that the conditions of metamorphism were at lower pressure and along a higher metamorphic field gradient than that recorded in Barrovian Facies Series metamorphic …

Eclogite facies: high-grade metamorphism. Contact, regional, and burial metamorphism produce the metamorphic facies listed above. Types of metamorphism Contact metamorphism. Contact metamorphism results mainly from an increase in temperature with little change in pressure. The increase in temperature is caused by injection of …

As was shown in Figure 7.5.7 7.5. 7, contact metamorphism can take place over a wide range of temperatures—from around 300° to over 800°C—and of course the type of metamorphism, and new minerals formed, will vary accordingly. The nature of the country rock (or parent rock) is also important. A hot body of magma in the upper crust …
