Design of crushing and granulation lines, dynamic metamorphosis during which faulting, granulation and flow may occur in the former crystalline parent rocks. When the stress exceeds the fracture strength, the rock succumbs to rupture. The rock may be broken down as a unit, or individual minerals may be selectively granulated. The stresses are generally not the same in all directions, so that motion occurs in a preferred direction, preferably with slip, granulation, or partial flow surfaces. Some catalysts are derived from major igneous rocks such as granite. In these, streaks of half-destroyed rocks swirl around the untouched cliffs. Many catalysts are derived from sedimentary rocks, including limestone and dolomite.
Milonites are the product of severe catalytic deformation. They are very fine, but the mineral fragments of the parent rock can be seen under a microscope. Most milonites are layered, layers formed by different grains of deformed material.
