question 31 thermal (contact) metamorphism produces foliated rocks only. both foliated and non - foliated rocks. non - foliated rocks only. thermal metamorphism does not produce any metamorphic rocks.
Thermal (contact) metamorphism can result in both types of rocks. When minerals recrystallize under heat from an igneous intrusion without significant pressure - differential, non - foliated rocks like hornfels can form. But in some cases with additional factors like slight pressure or preferred orientation of minerals during recrystallization, foliated rocks can also be produced.
