What is likely to have formed farthest from the shoreline. pebble conglomerate or quartz sandstone or silty shale or shell limestone?

Because sandstone, silty shale, and shell limestone usually have origins of formation on or near shore, the pebble conglomerate is left. Pebble conglomerates are formed from deposition of water transported rocks of larger size than the smaller rock particles which compose sandstone and shale. The larger size indicates they were transported and deposited further from the shoreline.
