None, this formation is in the center of a continent. It is an erosion feature in sedimentary rocks.
What is a type of rock formed when lava or magma cools?
the type of rock formed when lava or magma cools is igneous rock..
What are rocks that are resistant to erosion called?
Cap rock. Resistant cap rock will help protect softer rock below it from erosion. Any rock type that is more resistant to erosion than the rock type below it is called a cap rock. For instance, it could be basalt (igneous) overlying limestone (sedimentary), or limestone (sedimentary) over shale (also sedimentary).
Which family of rock is formed from weathering?
Clastic sedimentary rock is the usual type of rock formed from the products of rock weathering.
What is the most common type of rock found on earth's crust?
I was once taught Sedimentary rock is the most common rock found ON the Earth's surface. This is due to the constant work of erosion wearing down igneous rock and uplifted metamorphic rock and reforming the sediments as sedimentary rock. Sedimentary rock is of two types: 1) formed form detritus and 2) formed from organic materials. Erosion explains the prevalence of the first type, while the death deposition and decay of ancient living things explains the second( lignite, coal, etc. ).
What type of erosion created chimney rock?
chimney rocks were created by water erosion
What type of plate boundary formed Chimney Rock?

What type of rock is formed from particles of rocks created by erosion?
sedimenary
What type of rock could be formed from the weathering and erosion of metamorphic rock?
A Igneous B Sedimentary
What type of sedimentary rock is formed from deposits carried away from their source by water wind or ice?
Silting. Erosion.
What type of rocks can be affected by weathering and erosion?
Any type of rock that is at or near the surface could be affected by weathering and erosion. Mountains are eventually flattened; caves are formed underground. Both are the result of weathering and erosion.
What type of rock is formed by the process of erosion deposition compaction and cementation?
Sedimentary Rocks. For Example, Sandstone and Conglomerate.
How are the different rock types formed?
Well, the type of rock that you have is affected by things such as the minerals, like salinity (saltyness), altitude, erosion, age, etc.
What type of erosion formed mountain pass?
water erosion. :)
Once the rock is formed will it always be an igneous rock?
It is possible, but not likely. It is more likely to undergo metamorphism, or be subjected to weathering and erosion, and end up as a different type of rock.
What type of erosion formed?
Glaciers
What type of erosion formed the yosemite valley?
