what is the metamorphosed rock of clay
akshu2411:
This metamorphic environment is intense enough to convert the clay minerals of the sedimentary rocks into platy metamorphicminerals such as muscovite, biotite, and chlorite. To become schist, a shale must bemetamorphosed in steps through slate and then through phyllite..... hope it helps.

Answer:So, the clay (shale) which in Barrovian metamorphism develops a strong foliation (slate, phyllite, schist, gneiss) in contact metamorphism develops a granular texture (the rock hornfels). The analogy is putting a clay pot in a kiln; the clay is simply baked.
