  • Marble & Quartzite: Understanding Common Non-Foliated Metamorphic Rocks
    The two most common non-foliated metamorphic rocks are:

    1. Marble: Formed from the metamorphism of limestone or dolostone. It is characterized by its granular texture and can be found in various colors, including white, black, and green.

    2. Quartzite: Formed from the metamorphism of sandstone. It is known for its hardness, durability, and often has a sugary texture. Quartzite is commonly used in construction and landscaping.
