Regional metamorphism is metamorphism that occurs over broad areas of the crust. Most regionally metamorphosed rocks occur in areas that have undergone deformation during an orogenic event resulting in mountain belts that have since been eroded to expose the metamorphic rocks.
The kinds of metamorphic rocks found around intrusions are called 'contact metamorphic rocks' because they have formed due to contact with the heat from the intruded igneous rocks. Regionally metamorphosed rocks may form due to the increased pressure and depth of burial of large volumes of rocks in tectonic compressional zones, which can be thrust belts, or subduction zones.
