It's called deposition.
The dropping off of bits of eroded rock, known as sedimentation, occurs when the energy of the transporting medium (such as water or wind) decreases, causing the particles to settle out. This process is crucial for shaping landforms, depositing nutrients in soil, and forming sedimentary rocks over time.
A clump. Unless they have undergone compaction and cementation in a process known as lithification. Then they would be classified as a sedimentary rock, maybe conglomerate, breccia, or sandstone.
The rock type formed as bits of other rocks are cemented together is called sedimentary rock. Sedimentary rocks are typically formed through the processes of erosion, deposition, and compaction of sediment particles. Examples of sedimentary rocks include sandstone, shale, and limestone.
A mixture of tiny bits of soil and rocks is called sediment. Sediment can be composed of various sizes of particles, ranging from clay and silt to sand and pebbles, and it is often found at the bottom of bodies of water or deposited by wind.

It's called ash.
made from tiny bits of eroded rock or sandAnswerYou mean for roads with snow...no its mostly salt...to dissolve the snow! (with bits on sand and crushed rock for some traction too)Grit is basically small, tiny rocks for birds and other animals that help aid in digestion. It is made from sand, crushed granite, and even dirt.Sand comes from bits of rock that have been eroded even more. Salt is also a mineral found in the ground, so grit is basically made from rocks and minerals.
The small bits that rocks are made from are called grains. These grains can vary in size and shape, and are typically composed of minerals or other solid materials.

Various names, rocks, gravel, boulders, sediment, silt, sand, alluvial deposits, alluvium.
Smaller rocks.
Igneus rocks.
Sedimentary rocks are formed when eroded earth builds up
Bits of sand, rock, and soil formed by weathering are called sediment. Sediment is produced from the breakdown of larger rocks and is typically carried and deposited by wind, water, or ice. Over time, sediment can accumulate and form sedimentary rocks.

Transportation is a term used for the movement of sediments via transporting agents such as water, wind, ice and even gravity. Transportation is evident in rivers and streams where you can find pebbles of rock some of which might be perfectly spherical and others not quite spherical but round. Such round shapes are the result of transportation which causes attrition of rocks by hitting other rocks or materials, for example, in rivers, breaking bits off to form round shapes as supposed to angular shapes which are predominant in rocks which are freshly eroded.
