Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock. It is rounded, shiny and looks like it is made up of pebbles. It can be used for construction, the inside of walls and even polished to make decorations. This is because it is not very strong and is basically used for decoration.

∙ 15y agoConglomerate is clastic sedimentary rock composed of rounded pebbles of at least 2 mm, cemented together by silica, iron, or clay minerals. The rounded clasts in conglomerate are evidence that the material was transported a fairly long distance before deposition occurred; the tumbling and grinding by ice or water creating the smoothed edges.
