The answer is Compressional Stress

In geology, stress is the force per unit area that is placed on a rock. ... This is called confining stress. Compression squeezes rocks together, causing rocks to fold or fracture (break). Compression is the most common stress at convergent plate boundaries.

I hope this helped!! Have a great day :D
