(A) believed to be-- believed is a past participle and wrongly refers to the preceding noun deposits whereas it is supposed to refer to quartzite
(B) and it is believed to have been-- With since, we need a present perfect tense to show an action that begun in the past and continues in the present
(C) and that is believed to be-- The use of 'that' here as a demonstrative pronoun is not right. We need a personal pronoun
(D) which was, it is believed,-- With since, the use of past tense does not make sense
(E) which are believed to be-- SV error since quartzite is singular and verb used here is plural
Ans B

Bunuel
A- 'believed' could modify quartzite or deposits. Also the correct form will be: "believed to have been"
B- it refers to Quartzite, however it was deposits that metamorphosed.
C- that refers to quartzite.
D- was wrongly used for plural deposits
E- Correct
