Sedimentary rock forms when small grains of rock, such as sand or clay, are compressed and cemented together over time. Examples of sedimentary rock include sandstone and shale.
Three examples of sedimentary rock are: Slate (compressed silt), Limestone (skeletal remains of minute sea creatures), and Sandstone (compressed grains of sand).
Sedimentary rock forms in layers called strata. These layers are created when sediments such as sand, mud, and organic material are deposited over time and compressed together. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, limestone, and shale.
it is a type of rock that is formed by the deposition ofmaterialin water, as more and more material is deposited the previous layers are compressed to form a rock such as sandstone
Igneous
A type of rock? Possibly coal, which is decayed plant material, compressed and turned into a 'rock-like' material.
Yes, coal is a type of sedimentary rock that forms from the compressed remains of ancient plants and organic matter within the Earth's crust.
dirt
Sandstone is a type of sedimentary rock that is formed from compressed sand grains. It is often characterized by its sandy texture and layers of different colors and compositions.
the rock used for anal beads
SANDSTONE
When any type of rock undergoes weathering, it usually forms sedimentary rock. Weathering breaks down existing rocks into smaller pieces that get deposited and compressed to form sedimentary rocks over time.
Shale
That would be sandstone.
Magma. The lithosphere is composed of solid rocks, such as granite, basalt, and sandstone, that make up the outer layer of the Earth. Magma is molten rock beneath the Earth's surface.
Igneous rock forms from the cooling of magma. This forms a rock that is uniform in composition, and sometimes contains air pocketed texture from the process of cooling. Sedimentary rock is formed of small bits of dirt and stone that bind together after they settle as sediment. This rock is usually distinguishable by the flecks of different types of rock and dirt. Metamorphic rock is any type of rock that is transformed by heat, pressure, or chemical changes. It often becomes denser and smoother than the rock from which it changed.
