Basalt. Shale, Sandstone, and Limestone are all sedimentary rocks
Basalt has the highest density of the rock types mentioned.
yes
I know that limestone reacts to acid and shale does not. Also Limestone is Chemical sedimentary rock while Shale is Detrail(Spell?)
It doesn't. They have different chemical compositions. Limestone is CaCO3. Basalt is mainly SiO4 and Fe. There is however an igneous rock composed predominantly of carbonate minerals known as carbonatite. This tends to form at zones of continental rifting. It isn't basalt however!

Probably limestone. :)

Basalt does not belong; it is an igneous rock and all the rest of them are sedimentary.
Basalt and limestone.
yes
Limestone Marble, basalt And such

In the question "which does not belong; shale, basalt, sandstone, or limestone?" the answer is Basalt. Shale, Sandstone, and Limestone are all sedimentary rocks. Basalt is an Igneous rock. Shale and Sandstone are both clastic sedimentary rocks which means they come from the "pieces" or remains of rocks after weathering. Limestone is a chemical sedimentary rock which means it is deposited as a result of a chemical reaction, or a collection of material made by organisms, such as coral. volcanic basalt dykes are molten basalt that rose through existing sedimentary rock, and crystallized when it rose to the surface about 32 million years ago. The magma cools and hardens which creats a basalt stack, resistant to weather. Basalt is a common extrusive volcanic rock.It color is usually gray or close to black.
yes But basalt is a volcanic rock and shale is a sedimentary rock. I think basalt cannot turn into shale.
