How does a conglomerate rock form?
Compaction and Cementation
Compaction is a very important part of the lithification for which sediment gravel sand mud cobble?
Lithification processes, collectively referred to as "diagenesis," include: compaction (example: clay to shale), cementation (example: sand to sandstone), and partial recrystallization (example: lime mud to limestone). Note: Pressure by itself does not by compaction lithify sand to sandstone. Sandstone diagenesis is mostly by cementation and also, sometimes, by partial recrystallization and crystal overgrowths. The same is so of gravel that lithifies to conglomerate.
What are the two primary causes of lithification?
compaction and cementation
Changing sediments into sedimentary rock are compaction and?
Cementation.
Compaction and cementation forms what?
it is where everything goes wrong
Sandstone is created by what type of lithification?
Sandstone is formed from compaction and cementation of sand sized particles of rock.
In the lithification process compaction is followed by .?
Cementation.
What comes first compaction or cementation or erosion or deposition?
The order is as follows: 1. Erosion 2. Deposition 3. Compaction 4. Cementation
