Breccia is the type of sedimentary rock that is made of other fragmented rocks. The mineral that holds the fragments together can be made from the same rock material as the larger fragments, or from a different type of rock entirely.
A sedimentary rock made up of rock fragments or particles of other rocks is called 'clastic'.

The class of sedimentary rocks that are made of fragments from rock minerals and shells is called alabaster. It is a fine-grained sedimentary rock.
The movement of rock fragments is called erosion.
Sedimentary rocks are formed from the rock fragments that are made when a rock is eroed. Theese rock fragments are transported (carried away) from the rock face, usually by streams or rivers. As they are transported by the water, the rock fragments knock against each other and wear away. When they become very small they are called grains
metamorphic rock
