it's called conglomerate
Conglomerate; a clastic sedimentary rock composed of rounded pebbles and sand cemented together.
Conglomerate is a sedimentary clastic rock that has different sized rock fragments. These fragments can vary in size from pebbles to boulders and are typically cemented together by a matrix of sand and gravel.
Conglomerate rock is a type of sedimentary rock composed of rounded pebbles, cobbles, or boulders cemented together by smaller particles. The size and composition of the clasts in the rock can give clues to the environment in which it formed, such as in a river or beach setting. Conglomerate rock is common in areas with high-energy environments where transportation of larger particles is possible.
Conglomerate is a type of sedimentary rock that forms from large sediments like rocks and pebbles. These sediments are cemented together by smaller particles like sand and mud to create a rock with a clastic texture. Conglomerate is often found in areas where there has been significant water movement, such as riverbeds and alluvial fans.
No, marble is not a clastic rock. It is a metamorphic rock that forms from the recrystallization of limestone. Clastic rocks are composed of fragments of pre-existing rocks or minerals that have been cemented together.
A "petoskey" stone was originally an fossiliferous (with a coral fossil), organic (sedimentary) limestone. The original limestone has been glaciated and pieces of the fossiliferous limestone containing the corals have been plucked form their bedrock matrix and rounded into pebbles as they have been carried along by ice. When the ice melted these pebbles have been dropped into whatever was below them. This means a petroskey stone is a clast in a "new", modern clastic rock. However the stones themselves are not originally from a clastic rock, they are sedimentary in origin.

Sedimentary rock composed of older fragments of rock is called a conglomerate. This type of rock forms when pebbles and small stones are cemented together.
Conglomerate is a sedimentary clastic rock that has different sized rock fragments. These fragments can vary in size from pebbles to boulders and are typically cemented together by a matrix of sand and gravel.
A sedimentary rock, such as sandstone (quartz mineral grains eroded, transported and set in a fine matrix of mud) or a conglomerate formed in a high energy environment such as a beach of fast-flowing river bed, containing large pebbles set in a fine to medium matrix of sand and mud grains.
Breccias are a relatively common clastic sedimentary rock.
Clastic sedimentary rock.
Clastic material is composed of rock fragments. A clastic rock is composed of smaller rock fragments, such as sand or silt, that have been cemented together.
It began as an aggregat of unconsolidated sediment containing pebbles of various rock types. Upon lithification, it became the sedimentary rock called conglomerate.

Conglomerate is a clastic rock. They are coarse-grained sedimentary rocks.
