Which rocks has two different size grains of the same mineral?
The rock is conglomerate. The other rock would be Breccia if its grains were not rounded.
Is fine grained sedimentary rock smooth?
Yes. Fine grained means the grains in the rock are very small. The smaller the grains, the smoother the rock.
Are sedimentary rocks made of pieces of other rocks?
sand grains
How is the sugar cube look like a sedimentary rock?
A sugar cube looks like a sedimentary rock because, it has small and tiny particals such as those tiny crystals you see in a sugar cube. A sedimentary rock on the other hand, is composed of small sediments, like a sugar cube is composed of small particals and crystals.
Where are rudites?
A rudite is a type of sedimentary rock. This type of rock is found along the shoreline and is made from small grains.
What Sedimentary rock is composed of of small grains of sand?
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock mainly composed of small sand size grains of quartz and/or feldspar. It is often used for construction and also to make items used in the house.
What sedimentary rock composes of small grains of sand?
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock mainly composed of small sand size grains of quartz and/or feldspar. It is often used for construction and also to make items used in the house.
Does sedimentary rocks have small grains?
No, they are composed of fine-grained sediments, grains of which are generally too small to see with the unaided eye. This makes them easily distinguished from rocks like granite, which are composed of grains of minerals large enough to easily identify.
Which rocks has two different size grains of the same mineral?
The rock is conglomerate. The other rock would be Breccia if its grains were not rounded.
Sedimentary rock compossed of small grains of sand and quartz and feldspar?
This is the definition of the sedimentary rock shale.
What type of rock is composed of layers of small particles or sediments?
sedimentary rock
Is slate sandstone?
Slate is a clay mineral rich metamorphic rock. Sandstone is a sedimentary rock typically composed of cemented small grains of the mineral quartz. The two are very different rocks, both in composition and processes of formation.
Is sand a sedimentary rock or is lots of sand joined together a sedimentary rock?
Sand is composed of small loose particles of eroded rock of any type, but commonly it is particles of quartz from igneous or metamorphic rock. Each sand grain is actually a rock unto itself. Only when the sand grains are cemented together through a process known as lithification, do the sand grains become part of a new sedimentary rock.
Is fine grained sedimentary rock smooth?
Yes. Fine grained means the grains in the rock are very small. The smaller the grains, the smoother the rock.
Why is sandstone an example of sedimentary rock?
Yes. Sandstone is considered as a clastic sedimentary rock because it is formed from small particles of weathered and eroded rocks from various sources.
What type of rock forms when small grains of rock are pressed together and become cemented?
A Clastic Sedimentary rock.
What are oolites?
Oolite sands, or egg stones are sedimentary rock comprised of spherical grains composed of concentric layers.
