clay minerals and quartz
the most common minerals in clastic sedimentary rocks are likely
The three most common clastic sedimentary rocks are: - conglomerate-sandstones-shale
rocks: igneous rocks,metamorphic rocks,sedimentary rocks ect.................
other sedimentary rocks.
I only know the minerals... They are quartz and pyrite and etc.

Conglomerate, Sandstone and Shale are the three most common clastic sedimentary rocks.
The three most common clastic sedimentary rocks are: - conglomerate-sandstones-shale
The most common minerals in detrital sedimentary rocks are quartz grains and clay.
Clastic sedimentary. Classification of rocks are based upon three types: geological process, ... or sedimentaryrocks (fragmental rocks) are sandstone, laterite, sand, ... Sandstone (sometimes known as arenite) is a clastic sedimentary rock composed mainly of sand-sized minerals or rock grains. Most sandstone is composed of quartz or feldspar because these are the most common minerals in the Earth's crust.
minerals
We know silicate minerals are the most abundant in detrital sedimentary rocks.Quartzv is a tectosilicate mineral.So quartz is the most abundant and other silicate minerals are also very common in these rocks.

Quartz, feldspar and biotite are the most common type of minerals that a rock is composed of. Rocks can be sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic; any of the 3 minerals are always present in the rocks.
Sedimentary rocks have beds/strata. They are made from decomposed materials of other rocks. Plus they they have 3 forms: clastic = compacted or cemented rock particles (consolidated); precipitated = dissolved minerals deposited as H2O (water) cools or evaporates; organic = formed from organic matter (coal) or the activities of organisms (amber). Clastic sedimentary rocks are the most common, they are either sorted or unsorted. Precipitated sedimentary rocks can be crystals or massive. Organic sedimentary rocks usually vary.
Detrital sedimentary rocks, also called clastic sedimentary rocks, are composed of rock fragments that have been weathered from pre-existing rocks. They are the most common rocks on the surface of the earth.
