Formation of Jadeitite



Formation
0

Formation
Due to change in environmental conditions, rocks are heated and pressurized deep inside the Earth's surface. Jadeitite is formed from the extreme heat caused by magma or by the intense collisions and friction of tectonic plates. 0

Jadeitite Formation

Jadeitite formation took place millions of years ago. There are a variety of Jadeitite Uses and the Jadeitite Reserves are found in many countries around the world. The rocks in the earth’s crust continuously undergo changes in their composition which leads to formation of other rocks. Each rock has a unique formation process. Formation of Jadeitite is explained below:
