1. What is the name of each rock that best matches the protolith and pressure/temperature conditions from the diagram? a. Location 1 Basalt protolith: b. Location 2 Mudstone protolith: c. Location 3 Shale protolith: d. Location 4 Limestone protolith: 2. If the rock at Location 2 (Mudstone protolith) continued to be buried to a depth of 25km and temperature of 400°C, what rock would it become? 3. What geologic event or process would cause this burial, increase in depth/pressure and temperature? 4. If the rock at Location 1 (Basalt protolith) were heated to 800°C, what rock would it become? 5. What changes would occur in the rock? Would any changes occur?
