Deposition definition refers to the process where transported sediments settle due to changes in fluid flow. Hjulstorm’s diagram illustrates its control by velocity and turbulence. Coarser particles settle near the source, while finer ones travel farther,...

Types of Metamorphic Texture form due to varying pressure and temperature conditions. They are classified into foliated (slaty, schistose, phyllitic, gneissic) and non-foliated (granulose, mylonitic, hornfelsic) textures. Other textures like augen, porphyroblastic,...

Metamorphic Reaction: The study of metamorphic reactions provides vital information about the pressure and temperature conditions of metamorphism. During metamorphism, chemical reactions between components take place to produce a new mineral assemblage. The agents of...

Simple Random Sampling: Simple random sampling is a method of selecting “n” elements from a population of size “N” elements in such a way that each combination of “n” elements has an equal probability of being selected as every other combination. Advantages: This...

The Concept of Metamorphic Facies, introduced by Eskola in 1915, classifies metamorphic rocks based on mineral assemblages formed under specific temperature and pressure conditions. Each facies represents a distinct P-T field, aiding in the study of metamorphic...
