Bural metamorphism occurs when hot magma or lava comes in contact with rock?
No. This is contatc metamorphism. Burial metamorphism occurs when rock is altered due to the weight of overlying rock.
The kind of metamorphism that occurs when rock come into contact with a heat source such as magma and the rock surrounding the heat source get cooked?
It is called contact metamorphism. It takes place when the magma at high temperature tries to break out from the magma chamber, it then comes into contact with the country rock at high pressure and temperature.
Which kind of metamorphism occurs next to an intrusion of molten magma?
Contact metamorphism can occur in this scenario.
What occurs when heat from nearby magma causes changes in the surrounding rocks?
intrusive metamorphism
What is the process called when magma transition into intrusive igneous rock?
By Magma I'm guessing you mean the molten sedimentary rocks. The process is called metamorphism.
If metamorphism occurs due to heat generated by magma it is called what?
It is called contact metamorphism.
Metamorphism that occurs because of close proximity to a mass of magma is called?
Contact metamorphism is what occurs because of close proximity to a mass of magma.
Which kind of metamorphism occurs next to intrusion of Molten Magma?
Contact metamorphism.
What causes contact metamorphism?
contact metamorphism occurs when hot magma bakes rocks
What is a contact to metamorphism?
A process that alters rocks as a result of heat generated from magma
