How does contact metamorphism relate to plate tectonics? B.
A. Contact metamorphism causes earthquakes, which is the driving force behind plate motion.
Contact metamorphism occurs along the margins of magma bodies, which occur in great numbers at
subduction and rifting zones.
C. Plate motions cause earthquakes, which are the driving force behind contact metamorphism.
D.
Contact metamorphism occurs along the margins of magma bodies, which occur primarily in
continent-continent collision zones.
