Siltstone is a fine-grained sedimentary rock consisting of consolidated silt.
Probably consolidated sediments (sedimentary rock), then the rock basalt.
By being first weathered into loose material (clast), then transported, then deposited, and then consolidated.

A stone is a lump or mass of hard consolidated mineral matter. A small rock is a pebble, and stone.

when sedimentary rocks get exposed to great heat and pressure, they become more consolidated (harder to weather). when igneous rock combines with sediments and the two are heated under pressure, they become one rock, a metamorphic rock
Sedimentary rock, though that category also includes rocks formed when a cementing material precipitates out of groundwater between the grains.
Igneous Rock turns into a Sedimentary Rock using Weathering and Erosion. Weathering breaks down the rock into small sediments. Erosion takes the rock and send the sediments into another location, where they are deposited and then consolidated to form a sedimentary rock.
