What is Granite shale coal and limestone are commonly known as?
rocks
Which two kinds of adjoining bedrock would most likely have a zone of contact metamorphism between them?
shale and sandstone
What can granite and shale form under heated pressure?
Some shale becomes limestone and some changes into coal depending on what minerals are in them. --http://library.thinkquest.org/05aug/00461/shale.htm
What is the protolith of a quartzite?
Quartzite--sandstone. Marble--limestone. Slate--shale. Gneiss--basalt or granite.
Is granite gneiss marble limestone shale or basalt an igneous rock?
These are sedimentary rocks. Sandstone is made of compressed grains of rock and sand. Shale is made of compressed bits of mud and clay. Limestone is made of compressed pieces of forms of calcium carbonate.

the creek dried up and made shale, then what could of happened is it made a layer of shale and later limestone formed and made a layer of limestone on top of shale
Limestone can be metamorphosed into?
Limestone can be metamorphosed into marble through the process of recrystallization under high pressure and temperature conditions. The calcite crystals in limestone are transformed into interlocking crystals of calcite or dolomite in marble, resulting in increased hardness and a distinctive pattern and coloration.
