Quartzite. Quartzite is a metamorphic rock consisting largely or entirely of quartz. In vast majority of cases, quartzite is a metamorphosed sandstone. The transition from sandstone to quartzite is gradational. There is little mineralogical change.Quartz, the main constituent of sandstone, is not altered to other minerals but it is recrystallized during the metamorphism.his small sample of Jotnian quartzite from Finland is either strongly cemented sandstone or weakly metamorphosed quartzite. It is old (1.4 Ga) and a part of crystalline basement. Hence, it is usually considered to be a metamorphic rock. Width of the sample is 4 cm.
Metamorphic rocks form from preexisting rocks (either igneous, sedimentary, or other metamorphic rocks) that have been altered by the agents of metamorphism, which include heat, pressure, and chemically active fluids. During metamorphism some of the material must remain solid.igmatites, fall into a transition zone somewhere between. âtrueâ igneous rocks and âtrueâ metamorphic rocks. I. Metamorphism A.
