What is an interesting fact about limestone?
Most limestone was originally formed from sediments at the bottom of oceans, past and present.
Coral buried by sediments over time turn into what?
Limestone
What are the differences in the formation processes of limestone and sandstone?
Limestone is formed from the accumulation of calcium carbonate sediment, often from marine organisms like coral and shells. Sandstone is formed from the compression and cementation of sand grains. The main difference lies in the composition of the sediments that make up each rock type.
What two rocks are formed by calcite deposits and sand sediments?
Sandstone And Limestone
Is limestone an example of a calsitic sedimentary rock?
Yes, limestone is an example of a calcitic sedimentary rock. It is primarily composed of calcite, which is a mineral form of calcium carbonate. Limestone forms from the accumulation of marine shells and sediments over time.
What is a specific type of rock that is made from only one mineral such as rock salt or limestone?
Rock salt and limestone are both formed by sediments building up over time and becoming compressed into rock. This is known as sedimentary rock.
Does weathering helps to make the mixture of sediments that make up soil?
YES
What type of rock is made up of slowly buried sediments that were later cemented together by dissolved?
Sedimentary rock is formed from sediments are piled on top of one another, then compacted and cemented into rocks. Sandstone and limestone are examples of sedimentary rocks.
How is limestone formed in Florida?
over a very long time layers of these sediments hardened into a sedimentary rock called limestone
