Abstract
The physical conditions of contact metamorphism are diverse (Miyashiro, 1961b, p. 306–7; Reverdatto, Sharapovand Melamed, 1970). A classification of contact metamorphism in terms of the prevailing rock-pressure was given in §4–5. The first three sections of this chapter deal with descriptions of pelitic contact metamorphic rocks on the basis of this classification.
