The process by which dissolved minerals crystallize and glue particles of sediment together into one mass?
The particles in the sediments are cemented as pressure squeezes out water. The dissolved minerals in the water, usually silica or calcite, then become solid (crystallize), tying the particles together.
Why is cementation such an important process?
it results in the compaction of rock fragments
Cementation is a part of what process?
There are two types of production of cement process,Dry processWet process
What process happens when minerals are precipitated out of water and holds particles of rocks together?
That process is called cementation.
Where do minerals from cementation of igneous rocks come from?
during cementation, water deposits minerals that bind sediment particles together, which earth spheres are involved in this process?
In the lithification process compaction is followed by .?
Cementation.
What is the process of gluing sediments?
Cementation.
Cementation is part of the process of?
lithification
