Solution

The correct option is C Both 1 & 2
<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Gneiss is a common and widely distributed type of rock formed by high-grade regional metamorphic processes. It is medium- to coarse-grained and has distinct banding due to the presence of differing proportions of minerals in the various bands.
The gneisses and schists are commonly found in the Himalayas
