This metamorphic process is very complex and accounts for around 90% of the virus' code.
On the heels of that thought came the realization that the K'k'tict metamorphic process, whatever it was, must be violent.
The work of experimental petrologists has laid a foundation on which modern understanding of igneous and metamorphic processes has been built.
Pressure solution is a metamorphic process that requires a rock to be under strong pressure from one direction and in the presence of hot water.
This research can be extrapolated to the field to understand metamorphic processes and the conditions of crystallization of igneous rocks.
Some crystals have formed by magmatic and metamorphic processes, giving origin to large masses of crystalline rock.
During the metamorphic process, the pressure caused the layers of clay within the sandstone to thin and flatten into the mica-rich layers.
It can also be used to calculate the fugacity of oxygen recorded by mineral assemblages in metamorphic and igneous processes.
They are stable at high temperatures and pressures and may remain chemically unchanged during the metamorphic process.
The fact that the rocks in question have gone through a metamorphic process will be their main point of attack, I'd think.
