Answer:

Shock or impact metamorphism

Step-by-step explanation:

There are different types of metamorphism. These are:

  • Contact metamorphism
  • Regional metamorphism
  • Impact or contact metamorphism.

Impact or shock metamorphism results from concentrated and targetted pressure on a particular rock. It is usually from the collision of a bollide with the surface of the earth. The resulting impact quickly alters the rock metamorphically thereby deforming it and causing the minerals to rearrange in a new way.
