This classification scheme does not exist for good reason.
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock which is made up of sand grains which have been compressed to form a rock that has very weak bonds holding the grains together. The grains themselves can be igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic depending on which rock the grains were eroded from.
eroded rock (from igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary) settled. they compact together to form a rock. the rock that they form is known as sedimentary rock
Detrital sedimentary rock. clastic sedimentary A+
When sedimentary rocks break down and then are compacted by pressure, the resulting rock will be a metamorphic rock.
The metamorphic or igneous rock would have to be weathered and eroded until it is only particulates. Those particulates must then be forced together as a layer under gravitational pressure. These particulates will then become sedimentary rocks.
igneous rocks mix with metamorphic rocks and they combine together to make a sedimentary rock. the three themes of science rocks are metamorphic,igneous, and sedimentary.
Erosion breaks down a metamorphic rock then the particles get deposited and get cemented or compacted together forming a sedimentary rock.
When the metamorphic rock breaks down into sediment. Thus, making the new rock sedimentary because when sediment forms together over time it makes it sedimentary rock
Usually through the weathering and erosion of the metamorphic rock. The rock particles from the metamorphic rock are transported to a place of deposition where they can be cemented together by a process called lithification, forming a sedimentary rock.

metamorphic rocks get compacted and cemented together until it becomes sedimentary rocks. they can also get crystallized underwater into sedimentary rock. hope you find this helpful!!! :)when a rock is put under a lot of heat and pressure it morphs into a sedimentary rock.
Any type of rock, igneous, metamorphic or sedimentary, can become eroded and re-deposited and cemented together to become a new sedimentary rock.
It's when parts of both igneous and metamorphic rocks are crushed together and then they form sedimentary rocks.

Sedimentary rock is rock that has been worn away and turned into sediment such as sand. That sediment is then compacted together and turned into rock. So metamorphic rock wears away and compacts into sedimentary rock
