Metamorphic rocks arise from the transformation of existing rock types, in a process called metamorphism, which means "change in form". The original rock is subjected to heat and pressure, causing profound physical or chemical change.
Examples of metamorphic rocks include anthracite, quartzite, marble, slate, granulite, gneiss and schist.
