Answer: Bricks are made by mixing clay and water together and then firing them at high temperatures in a kiln
Explanation: The process of brickmaking has not changed since the first fired bricks were produced some thousands of years ago. The various phases of manufacture are as follows: securing the clay, beneficiation, mixing and forming, drying, firing, and cooling
The process of brickmaking is most similar to regional metamorphism. Regional metamorphism occurs when rocks are buried deep within the Earth’s crust. The pressure and temperature increase as they are buried deeper. This causes the minerals in the rock to change into new minerals. This process can result in the formation of new rocks.
