All sedimentary rocks form near the earth surface.

E.g. Evaporites (notice the spelling here: "-ites"), limestone, dolostone, sandstone, silt and shale, etc.

Most of these rocks have precipitated out of water solution.

Also extrusive igneous rocks, as these form during volcano eruptions.

E.g. Basalt.
