What else can I help you with?
In the lithification process compaction is followed by .?
Cementation.
What processes work together to form sedimentary rocks?
Weathering, Erosion, Deposition, Compaction, Cementation and Lithification.
How do you use cementation in a sentence?
The sculptor used cementation to affix the pieces of the sculpture together.
Is there a past form of the word cementation?
No, it's a noun. It's only verbs that have a past tense.
What happens during cementation?
During cementation, particles or grains are bound together by a cementing material, such as calcite or silica. This process helps to form sedimentary rocks like sandstone or limestone. The cementation process occurs as pressure from overlying layers squeezes the grains together and the cementing material fills in the gaps between them, creating a solid rock.
What is another word for burial compaction and cementation of sediment?
Diagenesis is the process that involves burial compaction and cementation of sediment.
The process by which dissolved minerals crystallize and glue particles of sediment together into one mass?
The particles in the sediments are cemented as pressure squeezes out water. The dissolved minerals in the water, usually silica or calcite, then become solid (crystallize), tying the particles together.
What comes first compaction or cementation or erosion or deposition?
The order is as follows: 1. Erosion 2. Deposition 3. Compaction 4. Cementation
What are the spaces in between particles called?
cementation
Which sedimentary rock would be formed by the compaction and cementation of rounded pebbles?
Conglomerate rock would be formed by the compaction and cementation of rounded pebbles.
Is course sandstone impermeable?
That depends on how well cemented the sandstone is. If the cementation is very poor then the permeability rate is good to excellent. If the cementation is very good, then the permeability rate is poor. Cementation fills in the pore spaces between the grains. The cementation may be calcium or silica.
Why is cementation such an important process?
Cementation is important because it helps bind sediment grains together to form sedimentary rocks, such as sandstone and conglomerate. Without cementation, loose sediment would not be able to lithify and transform into solid rock. Cementation also helps to strengthen and stabilize sedimentary rocks, making them more resistant to weathering and erosion.
