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.
Marble and slate are examples of metamorphic rock. Metamorphic rock is formed under extreme pressure combined with heat over time. Metamorphic rocks are so called because they always begin as another type of rock. When slate forms, some of the clay from the original rock is replaced by the mineral mica.arble is a type of metamorphic rock that originates from limestone. Schist is a type of metamorphic rock that can originate from slate which is another type of metamorphic rock. The word metamorphic literally means changed form. Slate, a metamorphic rock, can form from shale, clay or mudstone.
