Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks
The new edition of Winkler's textbook, completely revised by K. Bucher and M. Frey, is written at the same level as the preceding editions. Numerous diagrams showing the stability relations among minerals found in metamorphic rocks help to determine the pressure and temperature conditions under which a given set of metamorphic rocks may have formed. Part I explains basic principles of metamorphism, introduces metamorphic processes and geologic thermobarometry, and defines metamorphic grade. Part II presents...

revised: 1998 this chart demonstrates the process by which parent rock is changed by temperature and pressure (metamorphism) to form a metamorphic rock. this chart mimics the geologic process and degrees of metamorphism which occurs in rocks with increasing depth in the earth s crust. national science standards are incorporated in this 4-color newly revised chart. in the clasroom activity project unknown samples are provided for 30 students to identify by using 8 1/2" x 11" replica cardstock charts of the full size version (18" x 24").

Metamorphic rocks are formed by changing "parent rocks" (either igneous, sedimentary, or pre-existing metamorphic) to new forms. This requires changes in temperature and pressure and often the chemical action of hot gases and solutions. The chart displays specimens of twelve parent rock types, describes their texture and structure and provides fourteen examples of their metamorphosed counterparts. Size 23-1/2" x 15-1/2". Twenty-six specimens.

Metamorphic rocks, like the name suggests, morphed from rocks that already existed. These rocks form through changes in conditions like heat and pressure. The type of metamorphic rock that forms depends on how much heat or pressure is involved. During the transformation, metamorphic rocks can change properties such as shape and texture. In ancient Greece, pillars, sculptures, and cities were built from marble, a type of metamorphic rock. Today, marble and other types of metamorphic rock are still...
