As the particles travel and settle elsewhere as sediment forming new areas of soil.
Small particles of rock can be carried away by erosion processes such as wind, water, or ice. These particles can be transported and deposited in different locations, shaping the landscape over time.
Calcium is carried in water through the process of dissolution, where water interacts with minerals and elements to dissolve them into a solution. This allows calcium to be transported and distributed in water bodies.
Particles of soil and rock that are carried along in water are called sediment. They can include a range of sizes, from tiny clay particles to larger pebbles and boulders. Sediment transport is an important process in shaping the landscape and can contribute to erosion and deposition in rivers and other water bodies.
Objects like leaves, dust, seeds, and trash can be carried away by wind or water. This movement is known as erosion, and it can shape landscapes over time by transporting particles across different areas.
Sedimentary rocks are formed when layers of rock particles carried by wind and water are compacted and cemented together. Sandstone, shale, and conglomerate are examples of sedimentary rocks formed through this process.
Particles of sand and pebbles that are less dense than water are carried by a stream through a process called suspension. The flow of the water exerts enough force to keep these lighter particles suspended in the water and move them downstream. The particles are lifted off the streambed and transported until the flow of the water slows down or they encounter an obstacle that causes them to settle.
Large particles carried by water include sediment, rocks, debris, and organic matter. These particles can be transported by the flow of water in rivers, streams, and oceans, contributing to erosion and sedimentation processes.

sediments
I would consider tiny pieces of rock carried by water to be sediment. Sediment is generally clay or sand particles, but any type of rock ground into fine particles can be carried by water. This may include igneous-type rocks (those that come from around volcanoes and the bottom of the ocean).
Calcium is carried in water through the process of dissolution, where water interacts with minerals and elements to dissolve them into a solution. This allows calcium to be transported and distributed in water bodies.

Clay particles are very fine grained and light weight, so easily carried along by flowing water.
Suspended load
intermolecular forces
The force of moving water alone can wear away particles of rock.
