limestone: pavement and shale:Shale Sedimentary Rock. Gray rock fromed in deep sections of the ocean from clay. Shale is a very common rock worldwide that can be split into layers. An information card with details on the rocks formation, mineral content, characteristics and uses is included.
Sedimentary rocks include sand, chalk and Limestone. They are rich in calcium as they are mixed with shells mixed within it. Fossils are found often in them as when fish die they land on the bottom and are compressed with sediments landing on them and covering them. They are eroded easily by acid rain, despite many buildings and monuments being made out of them
Shale is formed from the accumulation of clay and silicate minerals which are too small to be seen without a microscope. Shale has visible layers that can be separated with a knife or other similar instrument. Shale is usually dark in color.
Limestone is formed in a variety of ways, but usually from the accumulation of the skeletal remains of small marine organisms. These skeletal remains are composed of the minerals calcite or aragonite. A hand specimen of limestone can appear layered or non-layered and the layers are not easily separated or as thin as with shale. Limestone varies in color from dark gray to light tan.
Limestone would be an example of a sedimentary rock.
Two types of limestone are chalk and marble.
No, I do not think there is an example of limestone.
Sandstone is an example of sedimentary rocks.
No, those are examples of sedimentary rocks.
what is the example of limestone
sedimentary
I know that limestone reacts to acid and shale does not. Also Limestone is Chemical sedimentary rock while Shale is Detrail(Spell?)
the creek dried up and made shale, then what could of happened is it made a layer of shale and later limestone formed and made a layer of limestone on top of shale
Basalt. Shale, Sandstone, and Limestone are all sedimentary rocks
shale and sandstone
The difference is NOTHING

gypsum,sandstone and shale
Limestone is the youngest since it's at the top
one has oil shale and one dosent

No. Limestone and shale are sedimentary rocks the form by different processes. Limestone is a biological sedimentary rock that forms from the carbonate shells of organisms. Shale is a clastic sedimentary rock the forms from the settling of fine-grained particles of mostly silicate minerals.
THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT CLAY IS MOIST, SOFT, AND SMOOTH. SHALE IS rock of fissile or laminated structure .
here are four easy types of sedimentary rocks: limestone, sandstone, shale, and coal. =)
