metamorphic rock
This term describes a specific geological category where the primary characteristic is transformation. It is distinguished from igneous rocks, which form from cooling magma, and sedimentary rocks, which form from accumulated debris. The term implies a state of change under extreme environmental stress, typically deep within the Earth's crust.
In a technical context, the term is often used as a broad classification. When referring to specific types of metamorphic rock, geologists use more precise terms like gneiss, schist, or marble. Because it describes a category of material, it is typically treated as a countable noun when referring to different types or samples of such rocks.
