| historyNote: | 2009-07-14. Generate SKOS encoding of vocabulary from Excel spreadsheet. |
| historyNote: | 2009-12-07 SMR Update metadata properties for version, creator, title, and format. Change skos:HistoryNote to dc:source for information on origin of terms and definitions. |
| historyNote: | 2010-02-08 SMR add prefLabel strings; they were missing up to this time. Add and modify hierarchical relations to better represent concept hierachy. Add TopConcept assertions |
| historyNote: | 2010-02-08. SMR Clean up namespace declarations so concept URI's follow CGI URN scheme; concepts have URN, are not document fragments. |
| historyNote: | 2010-02-13 Add narrower relationship links by adding skos:narrower link in Protege, defining skos:narrower as inverse of skos:broader, calculating with Pellet reasoner to add inferred axioms, and using 'file/Export inferred axioms as ontology' in Protege. |
| historyNote: | 2010-11-28 SMR replace URN with http URI according to CGI URI scheme (see https://www.seegrid.csiro.au/wiki/bin/view/CGIModel/PersistentIdentifiersInGeoSciMLServices) |
| historyNote: | 2012-02-07 SMR update URI to replace numeric final token with English-language string as in original URN scheme. |

| Definition () | Formation predominantly by closed-system changes in mineralogy, texture, or fabric of a rock in response to chemical and physical conditions that have been imposed below the surface zones of weathering and cementation (diagenesis), and that differ from the conditions under which the rocks in question originated. As defined here the changes in rock volume may include removal of some chemical constituents from the system (especially water and other volatile constituents). Note narrower use that Neuendorf et al. 2005; this vocabulary distinguishes metasomatism from metamorphism. |
