What is the cementing material between the grains in a sedimentary rock?
The cementing material could be calcite, clay minerals, iron minerals, or quartz in a clastic sedimentary rock.
Which rock form in layers from small pieces of rock minerals or dead origanisms?
Sedimentary rock
What contains water dissolved minerals and waste?
sedimentary rock
Is sedimentary rock a mineral or a rock?
Sedimentary rock is a type or classification of rock so designated by its method of formation. Minerals are inorganic naturally occurring solids, with a definite chemical composition and a crystalline structure.
Is sandstone a rock or mineral?
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock.
What type of sedimentary rock forms from weathered particles of rocks and minerals?
Sandstone is the sedimentary rock formed from weathered rock.
What type of rock is formed from particles or dissolved minerals from previously existing rocks?
The rock described would be a clastic sedimentary rock.
Is igneous rock made out of minerals?
No it is not. Sedimentary rocks are made of minerals.
What type of sedimentary rock forms when crystals grow out of solution?
These minerals are called evaporites.
Why does the color of sedimentary rock change during metamorphism?
The color of sedimentary rock changes during metamorphism due to minerals. New minerals introduced can change the color of the rock.
When sedimentary rock is buried what happens?
When sedimentary rock is buried, it is subjected to increased pressure and temperature. This leads to compaction, where the rock grains are tightly packed together, and often leads to the recrystallization of minerals. Over time, these changes can transform the sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock.
What is the cementing material between the grains in a sedimentary rock?
The cementing material could be calcite, clay minerals, iron minerals, or quartz in a clastic sedimentary rock.
What is A sedimentary rock that is made out of small pieces of existing rocks or minerals said to be?
It is said to be a clastic sedimentary rock.
What kind of rock is when minerals are deposited into layers?
Sedimentary
What contains water minerals and waste?
sedimentary rock
How are the sedimentary rock the metamorphic rock and the igneous rock the same?
They all contain minerals.
Is the sedimentary rock that forms when minerals precipitate from a solution and settle from a suspension organic chemical or clastic sedimentary rock?
The sedimentary rock formed from minerals precipitating from a solution is called chemical sedimentary rock. It is formed through processes such as evaporation or chemical reactions, without the involvement of organic material or clastic particles.
