Burial Metamorphism

Burial Metamorphism is a type of metamorphic process occurring in the absence of significant tectonic deformation, distinguished by mineralogical and textural changes in rocks driven primarily by increasing temperature and pressure due to deep burial beneath accumulating sediments in a subsiding basin.
