Web venn diagram activity that categorizes metamorphic rocks: Foliated textures • a foliated texture is caused by pressure. Web foliated rocks have platy or elongate minerals aligned in roughly parallel planes or in wavy bands or planes. Web nonfoliated metamorphic rocks lack foliated texture because they often lack platy minerals such as micas. They are made up of minerals that are all the same size and shape. They commonly result from contact or regional metamorphism. Rocks do not show layering and are often made of a single material. Also other naming’s are steatite or soaprock. Nonfoliated rocks may show colored bands that reflect minute. Objective to identify metamorphic rocks based on physical properties such as the presence of foliation,.
