Yes.
The loss of edges on sediment grains best describes the process of sediment abrasion or weathering, where particles collide and rub against one another, leading to the rounding of their edges. This process typically occurs in environments with high energy, such as rivers or beaches, where sediment is continuously transported and reworked. As a result, grains become smoother and more rounded over time, reflecting their transport history and the conditions of their depositional environment.

The greater the time that stream sediment is transported, the greater the probability that the sediment will become more rounded and well-rounded due to abrasion and attrition processes.

When sediment is deposited in layers and undergoes compaction due to the weight of overlying sediments, it squeezes out water and air, causing the sediment grains to become tightly packed. With time and pressure, this compacted sediment can undergo lithification to become sedimentary rock, such as sandstone or shale.
Slate becomes schist
Igneous rock becomes sediment due to exposure to chemical and mechanical weathering at or near the surface.

lagoons generally become infilled with sediment brought down by rivers and creeks that flow into them
