How will minerals orient when a rock is put under normal stress? how will minerals orient when a rock is put under normal stress? random to the direction of the greatest stress oblique to the direction of the greatest stress perpendicular to the direction of the greatest stress parallel to the direction of the greatest stress?

Respuesta :

The question is related to metamorphic rocks. When fine grained tabular materials are put under normal stress the minerals will line up perpendicular on a plane with which the most compressive stress is applied as the space in the rock is reduced.
