Definitions:

Partly Metamorphic

Relating to rocks that have been partially altered in structure or composition by heat, pressure, or chemical processes.

High Pressure

A condition of the atmosphere where the air pressure is higher than the surrounding area, often leading to stable weather conditions.

Metamorphic Conditions

Conditions under which rocks undergo transformation in terms of mineralogy, texture, and structure due to heat and pressure without melting.

Regional Metamorphism

The process by which rocks are transformed by high pressure and temperature over broad areas, typically associated with mountain building.
