Identifying Metamorphic Rocks -- Earth Rocks!
Identifying Metamorphic Rocks -- designed for the introductory-level student in a physical geology class AFTER watching Identifying Minerals, Identifying Igneous Rocks, and Identifying Sedimentary Rocks. This video reviews ALL those rock types and discusses how they transform. It can be overwhelming if you start here first. Designed for physical geology lab classes.

Metamorphic RocksMetamorphic Rocks Metamorphic Rocks are rocks that have changed form due to heat and pressure. Metamorphic comes from the Greek words meta and morph. Meta means change and morph means form. So we get metamorphic meaning to change form. Metamorphic rocks were once sedimentary, igneous or even other metamorphic rocks that have been changed by heat and pressure.( visit our website http:/www.findmarble.net for more information )
