conglomerate
Firstly, a breccia is itself a kind of sedimentary rock. It consists mainly of large (pea sized and up), angular sediment grains. For an existing sedimentary rock to become a breccia, it must be weathered into fragments, redeposited elsewhere, and buried to sufficient pressure for the sediment to become rock.
Breccia.
Conglomerate rock indicates short-distance transport of sediment. Conglomerate is composed of large, rounded fragments that have not traveled far from their source, suggesting a shorter transportation distance compared to other types of sedimentary rocks.
Breccia is a coarse-grained sedimentary rock that is composed of large, angular fragments.
Breccia is a clastic sedimentary rock composed of various sized visible pieces of other rock, cemented together by the processes of lithification.The pieces of rock that are visible are angular fragments, meaning they have somewhat jagged edges. This means that the fragments in the breccia did not travel far before they were deposited. If they had traveled longer and further they would have become rounded, in which case the resulting sedimentary rock would have been called conglomerate.
Reverse Grading.
The thickest sedimentary deposits are typically found in basins and troughs where large amounts of sediment have accumulated over millions of years. These areas can include deep ocean basins, continental rift zones, and areas where rivers deposit sediment such as deltas. The sediment can accumulate to great thickness due to tectonic activity, climate changes, or the presence of large amounts of sediment sources.
its called weathering, or erosion
The formation of large rocks from particles of sediment under pressure is called lithification. This process involves the compaction of sedimentary particles and the cementation of these particles by minerals dissolved in water, which binds them together to form solid rock. Over time, with continued pressure and cementation, sedimentary rock formations such as sandstone, shale, and conglomerate can be created.
Breccia is a clastic sedimentary rock with large angular fragments cemented in a finer matrix.

Clasts are individual pieces of rock or mineral fragments that make up a sedimentary rock. They can vary in size and shape, ranging from tiny grains to large boulders, and are important in determining the characteristics and composition of the sedimentary rock.
