There are many minerals in metamorphic rocks eg. Phyllites contain micas , Amphibolite contains amphiboles, quartz, and plagioclase. Other minerals include feldspars, biotite, pyroxenes and others such as calcium carbonate as in marble ..a result of the metamorphism of limestone.

∙ 12y agowell, there is no really class in the metamorphic rock that is called chemical, but there is one in the sedimentary rock. a chemical sedimentary rock is a rock that is made from minerals that were once dissolved in water

Are unakite rocks Sedimentary rocks Metamorphic rocks or Igneous rocks?
metamorphic
Are sedimentary rocks classified tofoliated sedimentary rocks?
Metamorphic rocks are classified by foliation or lack there of, not sedimentary rocks. They are classified into Clastic Sedimentary, and Chemical Sedimentary.
What are the chemical formula of the igneous rock?
Rocks are mixtures and so do not have chemical formulas. Igneous rocks vary in composition, so there is no way of giving a formula.
Metamorphic rocks that don't have layers?
Sedimentary rocks have layers, not metamorphic rocks.
What are the similarities between sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks?
They are both rocks
What is the chemical formula of marl rocks?
Rocks haven't a chemical formula as chemical compounds.
What are the three types of chemical rocks?
metamorphic,igneous, and sedimentary
What rocks from from evaporation of seawater or from other chemical processes?
metamorphic
What forces create metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rocks are formed from igneous, sedimentary and older metamorphic rocks that are introduced to extreme temperature and pressure. Because of the extreme temperature and pressure, rocks go through a significant chemical or physical change, turing them into metamorphic rocks.
What are the main things that cause metamorphic rocks to form?
the main things that cause metamorphic rocks to form is heat, pressure and chemical fluids.
What is rock that is changed by heat pressure or chemical change?
Metamorphic rocks have been changed by heat or pressure. This can be a change in size, shape, or arrangement of minerals.
What types of rocks can only be formed by the chemical change of another rock?
metamorphic
Which of the types of rocks can only be formed by the chemical change of another rock?
metamorphic
What two forces are needed to create a metamorphic rock?
Metamorphic rocks are formed from igneous, sedimentary and older metamorphic rocks that are introduced to extreme temperature and pressure. Because of the extreme temperature and pressure, rocks go through a significant chemical or physical change, turing them into metamorphic rocks.
Are metamorphic rocks only formed by igneous rocks?
No. Metamorphic rocks can also from front sedimentary rocks and from other metamorphic rocks.
Are unakite rocks Sedimentary rocks Metamorphic rocks or Igneous rocks?
metamorphic
What is used to classify metamorphic rocks?
texture, color, chemical reactions things like that.
