They are called chemical sedimentary rocks. Rock salt and rock gypsum are two examples.
The rock described would be a clastic sedimentary rock.
No, sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks are called clastic sedimentary rocks. Chemical sedimentary rocks form from minerals that are dissolved in water and precipitate out to form rocks like limestone or halite.
Sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed through the deposition and cementation of materials like pieces of other rocks, plant and animal matter, or dissolved minerals, which accumulate over time and solidify into rock layers.
Sedimentary rocks are formed when pieces of other rocks, plant and animal matter, or dissolved minerals collect and are compressed together to form rock layers. Over time, these layers become cemented together to create solid sedimentary rocks.
Chemical sedimentary rocks are formed from the precipitation from, or evaporation of, water that is saturated with dissolved minerals. In addition, most clastic sedimentary rocks are also formed from the cementing together of sediment particles by the precipitation of minerals from water.
These types of rocks are sedimentary rocks. They form through the accumulation and consolidation of sediment, which can include pieces of other rocks, plant and animal matter, and dissolved minerals that collect in layers over time. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, limestone, and shale.
Cement. Minerals can cement sediment particles together to form solid rock through a process called cementation in sedimentary rocks.
lol im bored are you?
There are three types of rocks, igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. They are basically composed of minerals, water and dissolved gases.
Clastic Sedimentary Rock- Sedimnetary rocks formed from fragments of rocks cemented together by minerals such as calcite.Chemical Sedimentary Rock- Sedimentary rocks formed from a solution of minerals (such as halite) and water.Organice Sedimentary Rocks- Sedimentary Rocks formed from the remaints of dead sea animals and seashells.
There are two processes in which sedimentary rocks form. One is chemical, and the other is by deposition (sediment being deposited and then cemented together). Examples of chemical sedimentary rocks are limestone, dolomite, and rock salt.
When dissolved minerals are left behind from an evaporated solution, the sedimentary rocks formed are called evaporites. Some common examples of evaporite rocks include gypsum, halite (rock salt), and sylvite. These rocks typically form in arid or semi-arid environments where there is high evaporation and low precipitation.
