Sedimentary rocks are formed when sediments, such as sand, mud, or organic material, are compressed and cemented together over time. This process typically occurs at the bottom of bodies of water or on land, where layers of sediment accumulate and solidify into rock.
Sedimentary rock can be formed from lithified sediments.
Clastic sedimentary rock is sedimentary rock that is formed from rock particles.
Clastic sedimentary rocks: Formed from the accumulation of mineral and rock fragments that are cemented together. Chemical sedimentary rocks: Formed from precipitation of minerals dissolved in water. Organic sedimentary rocks: Formed from the accumulation of organic material, such as plants or animals.
Shale is a sedimentary rock formed from the compaction of fine-grained sediment such as mud or clay.
A sedimentary rock is formed when rock fragments are compacted and cemented together by pressure and minerals. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, shale, and conglomerate.
Mechanically formed sedimentary rock , Chemically formed sedimentary rock and Organically formed sedimentary rock.
Sedimentary rock can be formed from lithified sediments.
Sedimentary rock formed from sand is called sandstone.

Sedimentary rock, like limestone, is formed in layers.

False Sedimetary rocks can be formed from changes in igneous rock, and igneous rock can be from changes in sedimentary rock.
Clastic sedimentary rock is sedimentary rock that is formed from rock particles.
Some sedimentary rock is formed this way; chemical sedimentary rock formed from evaporites, like rock salt, and rock gypsum.
Sandstone is the sedimentary rock formed from weathered rock.
Clastic sedimentary rocks: Formed from the accumulation of mineral and rock fragments that are cemented together. Chemical sedimentary rocks: Formed from precipitation of minerals dissolved in water. Organic sedimentary rocks: Formed from the accumulation of organic material, such as plants or animals.
