All rocks can be susceptible to weathering, or erosion by natural (and sometimes manmade) forces. It does not matter if it is sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic. Intrusive rocks, below the surface of the Earth's crust, are not as weathered as rocks above the surface (extrusive), which are stripped of sediment and particles more frequently due to water, wind, etc.
