Question 5
Metamorphic rocks have about the same minerals as
igneous or sedimentary because they are just
changed by heat and pressure on the metamorphic

One way to identify Metamorphic rocks is to look at the way
grains are formed. For example, Schist rocks have grains that go
the same way as the layers. Some Metamorphic rocks are
layered while others are made up of grains.
Another way is to compare the rocks to ones on the internet or in
a book. Slate is grey and purple. Schist looks like flakes and is
sliver. The bands of Gneiss are light and dark colored. The color
of Quartzite is white, and Marble is multicolored.
