Regional metamorphism is a type of metamorphism where rock minerals and texture are changed by heat and pressure over a wide area or region. Contact and regional metamorphism differ in both the area and pressure involved.With contact metamorphism we see rocks change, mainly due to heat in a relatively small region.egional metamorphism is a type of metamorphism where rock minerals and texture are changed by heat and pressure over a wide area or region.
