Metamorphic Rocks
There are 9 different types of metamorphic rock added to Minecraft through the Underground Biomes mod. Each of the metamorphic rocks found deeper underground have a rare chance to drop lapis lazuli or redstone when broken.
Breaking a metamorphic rock with a normal pickaxe will result in cobblestone, which than then be crafted into stone or brick, as well as used in any vanilla Minecraft recipes using cobblestone, stone or brick.
