Examples of sedimentary rocks?
gypsum,sandstone and shale
What sedimentary rock does granite turn into?
Gneiss turns into granite. Though it comes from shale."GNEISS can turn to migmatite and then totally recrystallize into granite."
How are shale sandstone and breccia simliar?
They are all clastic sedimentary rocks.
List of sedimentary rocks from a to z?
Conglomerate, limestone, sandstone, and shale.
What can igneous rock granite become?
Igneous rock granite can undergo weathering and erosion over time, breaking down into smaller particles. These particles can then be transported and deposited, leading to the formation of sedimentary rocks such as sandstone or shale. Additionally, if granite is subjected to extreme heat and pressure, it can undergo metamorphism and transform into a new type of rock called gneiss.
What rocks is the texture of sandpaper granite shale sandstone marble?
granite
What is the protolith of a quartzite?
Quartzite--sandstone. Marble--limestone. Slate--shale. Gneiss--basalt or granite.
What are 4 common rocks?
Sandstone, limestone, granite and shale.
What metamorphic rock does shale and granite turn into?
Shale turns into slate, granite into gneiss.
5 varieties of rocks?
Granite Basalt Shale Sandstone Marble (there are lots more)
Which rocks are metamorphic rocks?
Marble (metamorphosed limestone) Slate (metamorphosed shale) Gneiss (metamorphosed granite)
What are some examples of inorganic rocks?
Granite, diorite, gabbro, basalt, sandstone, shale, gneiss.
What are examples of igneous metamorphic and sedimentary rocks?
Igneous: * Obsidian * Granite * Diorite * Gabbro * Pumice * Basalt Metamorphic: * Slate * Phyllite * Gneiss * Mica schist * Marble * Quartzite * Granulite Sedimentary: * Limestone * Sandstone * Shale * Chert * Mudstone * Chalk
Is granite gneiss marble limestone shale or basalt an igneous rock?
These are sedimentary rocks. Sandstone is made of compressed grains of rock and sand. Shale is made of compressed bits of mud and clay. Limestone is made of compressed pieces of forms of calcium carbonate.
Examples of sedimentary rocks?
gypsum,sandstone and shale
Which rock holds more water shale sandstone or granite?
granite
What metamorphic rock does shale and ganite turn into?
Shale and granite are sedimentary rocks. After thousands of years under pressure and heat, they can turn into phyllite rock.
