There are a few different ways.
By the current in the water. By explosive volcanic eruptions.
By erosion and wind. By gravity. By glaciers. By icebergs.
By human/animal movement. By meteor impact. By landslides.

What is a coquina?
A coquina is "not-quite-formed" sedimentary rock. It is primarily calcite with an addition of coral and crushed shells that is not completely consolidated. This "stone-like" material is sometimes recovered and used as building material. We see this in Florida and some other locations around the Caribbean. Use the link below to check facts and gather more information.Another definition: coquina is an organic sedimentary rock that contains calcite shell fragments cemented loosely together with a calcite glue. It looks a little like granola.sedimentary rock that is composed either wholly or almost entirely of the transported, abraded, and mechanically sorted fragments of the shells of either molluscs, trilobites, brachiopods, or other invertebrates.
What do you call bits of rocks and other matter?
Those are called sediments. It is any sort of loose rocks and mineral fragments that are deposited in layers. They can either be transported by water, wind, ice, or gravity.
What is the Movement of fragments of rock?
The movement of rock fragments is called erosion.
What is the name for weathered rock fragments?
Weathered rock fragments are known as sediment.
What are small fragments that have entered to earth atmosphere and fallen to surface?
If the fragments had their origin in outer space, the fragments to be found on Earth would be called "meteorites".
How do the rock fragments formed by weathering become rounded grains?
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the rock fragments that are made when a rock is eroed. Theese rock fragments are transported (carried away) from the rock face, usually by streams or rivers. As they are transported by the water, the rock fragments knock against each other and wear away. When they become very small they are called grains
What happens to erodent material when transported along a river?
Typically the fragments are worn into rounded shapes.

What is the definition of abrasion in your own words?
A type of mechanical weathering that occurs when loose fragments or particle rocks and minerals get transported, by water or air that scrape the surfaces of stationary rocks.
When was Fragments of Fragments created?
Fragments of Fragments was created in 2006.
What is transportation in rivers?
Transportation is the process by which fragments of rock are moved from one place to another. The rock can be transported by ice, wind or water. Weathering and transportation together are called erosion.

Those are called sediments. It is any sort of loose rocks and mineral fragments that are deposited in layers. They can either be transported by water, wind, ice, or gravity.
What is the difference between brushed stainless steel finish and abraded stainless steel finish?
i guess your buying a BMW. brushed aluminum is basically an aluminum that is brushed to make it smooth. abraded is like a snake skin but not a snake!!
