|
Low grade:
|
diagenesis >> incipient metamorphism: 100o-150oC
|
|
• High grade: anatexis
|
formation of partial melt: 750o-850oC
|
|
Original nature of the rock before metamorphism
|
• PROTOLITH:
|
|
Higher grade than Slate, with incipient Foliation, shiny surface; almost all are meta shales, metamudstones
|
Phyllonite:
|
|
Higher grade than slate, phyllonite; characterized by distinct metamorphic foliation, abundant platy minerals, some segregation into layers common
|
Schist
|
|
Low grade metamorphic rocks with partly to well-developed cleavage; almost all are meta shales, metamudstones.
|
Slate, Argillite:
|
|
Pelitic schist rich in garnet, biotite, & quartz.
|
Garnet-Biotite Schist
|
|
High grade metamorphic rock; varies widely in composition and mineral mode; characterized by distinct compositional banding in most cases
|
Gneiss:
|
|

|
Quartzite
|
|
Metamorphosed limestone or dolostone. Typically unfoliated, granular crystalline rocks
|
Marble:
|
|
“Mixed Rock”, high grade gneiss in which felsic bands = granitic melt, mafic areas = melting residue, or host into which melts intruded
|
Migmatite:
