Is graphite a clastic rock or a non clastic rock?
Graphite is a non-clastic rock. It forms from the metamorphism of organic material, usually from sedimentary rocks like shale. As the organic matter undergoes heat and pressure, it transforms into graphite, which is a crystalline form of carbon.
What is graphite schist?
It is a medium-grade metamorphic rock with a preponderance of the platy mineral graphite.
Do pencils have rocks or minerals in them?
Pencils contain graphite, which is a crystalline form of carbon. Graphite is not considered a rock or mineral, as it is composed solely of carbon atoms.
WHAT is the change of one type of rock into a new type of rock?
ANSWER: rock cycle
What kind of metamorphic rock do you find in a pencil?
The metamorphic rock commonly found in a pencil is graphite. Graphite is a soft, black mineral that forms from the metamorphism of carbon-rich sediments. It is composed of layers of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal pattern.

Is Graphite soft?
No, graphite is not soft. In fact, if you find a graphite rock, it is extremely hard. It is often very colorful, though.
What is graphite schist?
It is a medium-grade metamorphic rock with a preponderance of the platy mineral graphite.
Is graphite igneous sedimentary or metamorphic?
Graphite is a metamorphic rock. It is formed from the metamorphism of organic sedimentary rocks, such as coal, under high temperature and pressure.
Where is graphite for pencils found?
sometimes under ground.but as graphite is a rock it is mostly found in its rocky form
Does the rock cycle have to start from the sedimentary rock?
No, the rock cycle does not have to start from the sedimentary rock
What is the rock cycle including descriptions of how one type of rock can change into another type?
It is called the Rock Cycle.
What does the rock cycle and water cycle have in common?
The rock cycle and water cycle both are natural.
Does magnetite conduct electricity?
Rock is generally an insulator. Note that the color of a rock is usually not a good indicator of is composition of properties.
What igneous rock does graphite turn into?
Party Rocking in my pants
WHAT is the change of one type of rock into a new type of rock?
ANSWER: rock cycle
What is beginning of the rock cycle?
there is no beginning or end of the rock cycle
