IT
Let’s do it!

✓
If the rocks are buried deep, temperature and pressure will get increased.

✓ Contact metamorphism creates no-foliated metamorphic rocks.

Magma will bake the surrounding rocks due to difference in temperature.
✓
Deformed rocks with foliation/lineation is brought by pressure and
✓ recrystallization of minerals.
Pressure is the main factor of contact metamorphism.
✓ and gneiss are examples of foliated rocks.
