Any kind. (There are more than one?)
Rocks wear away because slowly,wind/water take away tiny pieces of dust and slowly it gets worn away.
The force of moving water alone can wear away particles of rock.
The force of moving water alone can wear away particles of rock.
wind can wear away rock by being pressed against it and being sent downstream and soon sand dunes and rocks will wear away by wind.
They Create Deltas.
Abrasion is when rock particles are wearing away from the rocks surface. This is done by wind, water, and ice in nature.
The way water and wind breakdown rocks is through erosion. This is the wearing away of the surface of the rock through continuous friction with its surface. The same amount of water (or wind) will wear away rocks of different hardness at different rates. Obviously, it would take wind a considerably longer period of time to wear down an inch of granite as it would water. On the order of millions of times.
erosion, I believe
Because they could be destroyed and recycled.

The tides and waves slowly wear away at the rocks.
Water and wind wear down stone by carrying away the top layer of dirt repeatedly.
