Definitions:

Recrystalization

Recrystallization is a metamorphic process where crystals of minerals grow larger while the overall chemical makeup of the rock remains the same, usually as a result of heat and/or pressure.

Remobilization

The process by which sedimentary deposits are eroded and transported to be deposited again in a new location.

Pressure Solution

A diagenetic process where mineral grains partially dissolve under high stress, typically in wet conditions, allowing deformation.

Regional Metamorphism

The process of transformation of rocks by heat and pressure over wide areas of the Earth's crust, typically associated with mountain building.
