The rocks from which a sedimentary conglomerate is formed may have travelled long distances from various locations before being deposited and lithified.
Pieces of gneiss, granite, and basalt can be found in the same conglomerate rock through a process known as sedimentary mixing. This occurs when rocks of different types are broken down into smaller fragments and then carried by water or wind to a new location where they become cemented together in a conglomerate.
These are sedimentary rocks. Sandstone is made of compressed grains of rock and sand. Shale is made of compressed bits of mud and clay. Limestone is made of compressed pieces of forms of calcium carbonate.
Shale turns into slate, granite into gneiss.
Some examples of inorganic rocks include granite, basalt, and limestone. These rocks are formed through processes such as cooling and solidification of magma, compression of sediments, or chemical precipitation.
Conglomerate is a clastic sedimentary rock that has rounded pebbles included among its clasts. Gneiss is a high-grade foliate metamorphic rock characterized by alternating light and dark bands. It forms from the metamorphism of granite or schist.

There are 21 native rocks that are in Canada. There's Basalt, Pumice, Gypsum, Dunite, Pink Granite, Grey Granite, Obsidian, Shale, Ironstone, Sandstone,Flint,Slate, Siltstone, Limestone, Serpentine, Marble, Conglomerate, Coal, Gneiss, Mica-Schist, Quartzite and Marble.
Shale turns into slate, granite into gneiss.
Granite is an igneous rock and gneiss is a metamorphic rock.
Gneiss may form from either granite or schist.
Yes. Among some of the more common changes, granite can become gneiss and basalt can become greenstone.

The daughter rock of granite is gneiss. Gneiss forms from the metamorphism of granite, where the minerals in the granite recrystallize and align into distinct bands or layers, giving gneiss its characteristic appearance.
It can.
