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
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?
Which two process lead directly to the formation of breccia and conglomerate?
compaction and cementation
Cementation is part of the process of?
lithification
Process of gluing sediments?
It's called cementation, part of the lithification process which turns sediments into rock.
In the lithification process compaction is followed by .?
Cementation.
What is the process of gluing sediments?
Cementation.

Sedimentary rocks are formed by the process of compaction and?
Cementation.
Sediments are glued together by minerals?
The process is called cementation.
A major process in the formation of clastic sedimentary rock is?
Cementation
The first two steps in the lithification process are?
compaction and cementation.
Process that glues or cements sediment particles together?
cementation
What is the process that dissolves crystals and glues particles together?
Cementation.
