What is the formation of sedimentary rock?
the formation of a sedimentary rock is first weathering. Weathering breaks into smaller piece's. Next is erosion. Erosion is when it moves the sediment to different places. Deposition after that and what deposition do is forming a sedimentary rock when it rains, snow ect. It slows the rock formation down and less energy and sediment will be on the sedimentary rock. Last it is compaction. and that squeezs the sedimentary rock together
What types of rocks are created from erosion and deposition?
Erosion and deposition can lead to the formation of sedimentary rock.
Sedimentary rock formed from deposits of?
Sedimentary rocks are types of rock that are formed by the deposition of material at the Earth's surface and within bodies of water.
What type of rock is it when weathering deposition and cementation are all involved in the formation of the rock?
Sedimentary rocks.
What two geological processes are involved in changing igneous rock to sedimentary rock?
The geological processes, that are involved in changing igneous rock to sedimentary rock are; weathering, erosion, deposition and compaction.
Where can strata can be found sedimentary rock or igneous rock?
Sedimentary Rock. Strata is layers of sedimentary rock that form from the deposition of sediment.
Erosion and deposition play roles in the formation of what kind of rock?
Erosion and deposition may eventually result in the formation of sedimentary rock.
What is the rock that is made from erosion and deposition of sediments?
sedimentary rock
Is galena metamorphic sedimentary or igneous?
Galena is a mineral. not a rock, but is commonly found emplaced in sedimentary rock from hydrothermal deposition in faults and fissures.
How is the coaresest sedimentary rock made?
The coarsest sedimentary rock is made by the process of sedimentary rock called "Deposition". Deposition is the process of laying down sediment carried away by either water wind or ice.
Which process will change sedimentary rock into another sedimentary rock?
Weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation.
What kind of rock results from the weatheringerosionand deposition of other rock particles?
It is sedimentary rock.

Erosion and deposition can lead to the formation of sedimentary rock.
How can an igneous rock become a sedimentary rocks?
Yes, after erosion and deposition.
What is necessary for sedimentary rock to form?
Sediments, deposition and geological time.
What type of rock is formed by deposition and cementation of sediments?
Sandstone, a sedimentary rock, is formed by the deposition and cementation of small particles of weathered rock and/or minerals above the surface of Earth. Answered by Jaden
