These stones are called conglomerate pavers.
Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock made up of rounded pebbles cemented together.
Conglomerate; a clastic sedimentary rock composed of rounded pebbles and sand cemented together.
Breccia is made up of angular pebbles that are cemented together.
If the pebbles are rounded, then the rock is a conglomerate. If the pebbles have sharper edges, the the rock is a breccia. Both are types of sedimentary rock.

Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock made up of tiny rounded pebbles cemented together by sediments that pile on top of them. The pebbles become cemented together by minerals like silica, calcite, and iron oxides.
Pebble conglomerate is rock that is made up of pebbles cemented together with other sediments.
If the pebbles are rounded, then the rock is a conglomerate. If the pebbles have sharper edges, the the rock is a breccia. Both are types of sedimentary rock.
conglomerate
Conglomerates are sedimentary rocks consisting of rounded fragments.
conglomerate
Conglomerate is made up of rounded pebbles cemented together. The pebbles have been rounded by the action of moving water. This could be from a river or stream or from waves on a long ago beach.Because they have been transported by water the pebbles may be from a wide variety of rock types. The size of these rock fragments is over 2 mm in diameter.After the pebbles have been deposited they are compacted by the sediments that pile up on top of them. Over very long periods of time the pebbles become cemented together by minerals. Silica, calcite, and iron oxides are the most common cementing minerals.The rounded rock particles in the conglomerate are easily visible to the naked eye.Conglomerate is often much harder and resistant than the sandstones and shales that surround it. Conglomerate is scientifically valuable because the individual stones are samples of the older rocks that were exposed as it was forming---important clues about the ancient environment.
i am trying to do my homework because it is has something to with rocks so i am trying to get it and it will not give me the answer I THINK IT IS THAT C WORD THAT IS ON YOUR PAGE ON THE HOMEPAGE :)
