Yes, when the flow of a river slows the sediment is deposited.
The flow of water slows enough for the silt to be deposited.
The greater the speed the less sediment deposited. A delta is where a river slows way down and sediment is deposited at the mouth of the river.
Silt refers to a sediment of a certain size. Sediment can be of any size particle which has been deposited.

The heaviest sediment will always be deposited first. Which sediment is the heaviest in that flowage can vary widely.
The greater the speed the less sediment deposited. A delta is where a river slows way down and sediment is deposited at the mouth of the river.
