What is the type of rocks which contain fossil fuels?
The type of rocks that contain fossil fuels are sedimentary rocks, such as shale, sandstone, and limestone. Fossil fuels like oil, natural gas, and coal are formed from the remains of plants and animals that were buried and compressed over millions of years within these rocks.
Why are fossil found in sedimentary rocks and not in igneous rocks?

Fossil fuels are found in what type of rock?
Fossil fuels are typically found in sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed from the accumulation and lithification of sediments, which contain organic matter that can be transformed into fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas.
Would you find fossil in sedimentary rocks?
Yes, you can find fossils in sedimentary rocks.
What rock types would most likely contain fossil?
Sedimentary rock is the only type of rock that will contain fossils, but there are several types of sedimentary rock.Examples:Clastic Sedimentary Rocks (particles of silt and/or sand that cement together): Conglomerate, Breccia, Sandstone, Siltstone, Shale.Examples:Chemical Sedimentary Rocks (forms when mineral constituents become supersaturated and inorganically precipitate):Evaporates:Halite, GypsumCarbonates:Limestone, Fossiliferous LimestoneSiliceous Rocks: ChertOrganic Sedimentary Rocks: Coal.The rocks listed in BOLD will likely be found with fossils.
What does sedimentary rock and fossil fuels have in common?
Both sedimentary rocks and fossil fuels are formed from the accumulation and compression of organic material over millions of years. Fossil fuels, like coal, oil, and natural gas, are derived from ancient plant and animal matter that have undergone tremendous heat and pressure under layers of sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary rocks, on the other hand, can also contain fossil fuel deposits in the form of coal seams or oil reservoirs.
What type of rocks can contain fossils on them?
Sedimentary rocks. and metamorphic rocks made form sedimentary rocks.
Is igneous or sedimentary rock more likely to contain fossil?
sedimentary
What kind of rock contain fossil?
sedimentary
What is sedimentary rocks nickname?
I think it is, "The settled rock", but I'm not sure. Well I am, kinda. Whatever. Delfano
What are the similarities between sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks?
They are both rocks
Sedimentary rocks that formed organically typically contain what?
Sedimentary rocks that formed organically typically contain calcite. Fossils are most likely to be found in sedimentary rocks.
