limestone
Sedimentary rock is formed when rock fragments, mineral grains, or organic particles are compacted and cemented together over time. This process occurs through the deposition and lithification of sediment in layers. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, limestone, and shale.
Compacted soil is soil that has been densely packed down, reducing pore spaces. Cemented soil is soil that has had a binding agent added to it, causing the particles to stick together, increasing strength and reducing permeability. Both types of soil have reduced porosity and may have altered engineering properties compared to natural soil.
If eroded, deposited, compacted and cemented, it becomes clastic sedimentary rock.
A sedimentary rock is formed when loose particles, such as sand or clay, are compressed and cemented together over time. This process occurs through the accumulation and lithification of sediments.
The process of rocks compacting and cementing together to form a solid rock is called lithification. During this process, loose sediment or other rock materials are transformed into sedimentary rocks through pressure and mineral precipitation.
It is called sedimentary rock.
Sediment is first compacted and cemented together to form sedimentary rock. Over time, pressure and temperature help the sediment grains fuse together to create a solid rock structure. This process can take thousands to millions of years.

Rocks made from sediments being compacted & cemented together.
sedimentary rock
Sandstone.
Loose rock sediments are compressed and cemented together over time through processes like lithification, which involve pressure, heat, and chemical reactions. These processes bind the sediment particles together to form solid rocks, such as sandstone or shale, through compaction and cementation.

limestone
They become compacted and cemented into sedimentary rock.
