It would get harder once they clay dry's.
Is clay an example of impermeable material?
Clay is a very good example of an impermeable material. Although, clay exhibits a lot of porosity, the permeablility rate is very poor. Clay materials are excellent aquacludes. They form aquifers and prevent the water in the aquifer from moving upward until the clay material is breached by drilling, seismic activity or other means that create a pathway for the water to move. Penetrating a clay layer usually causes artesian or flowing artesian conditions in the aquifer.

What does clay like material that fell to a lake bottom turn into after a millions of years of pressure and heat?
Over millions of years, clay-like material that falls to a lake bottom is subject to intense pressure and heat. This results in an incredibly slow and gradual process of change. The clay-like material will transform into a sedimentary rock, such as shale or mudstone. These rocks are composed of particles of clay and other minerals that have been cemented together as a result of the pressure and heat. The sedimentary rock will also contain fossils and other evidence of the organisms that were present at the time the clay-like material was deposited. This is because the process of sedimentary rock formation preserves and encases the fossils and other organic material that was present in the clay-like material when it was deposited. Thus, after millions of years of pressure and heat, the clay-like material that fell to a lake bottom is transformed into a sedimentary rock containing fossils and other evidence of past life.
