Depends on the environment and mode of deposition. I think that you're thinking of an alluvial fan.
Overburden soil refers to the layer of soil and rock that sits above a mineral deposit or bedrock. It needs to be removed during mining or excavation activities to access the desired materials underneath. The overburden soil is usually of lower economic value compared to the underlying mineral deposits.
Overburden refers to the rock or soil covering a mineral deposit, while ore is the mineral deposit itself that contains valuable minerals or metals. Overburden needs to be removed to access the ore for mining.
The soil layer of rock beneath the soil is called bedrock. It is the solid rock layer that underlies the loose topsoil and subsoil layers.
The layer of solid rock below the soil is called bedrock. It is composed of consolidated rock that serves as the foundation for the soil layer above it.
When the soil above it formed from the bedrock below.

Glaciers pick up rocks and soil as they move across land. When the glaciers melt, they deposit the rocks and soil. Today there are ridges of rocks and soil where glaciers once were.
A stream is most likely to deposit the rock and soil it is carrying when its velocity decreases, such as in a meander or where the gradient lessens. This allows the stream to no longer have enough energy to transport the sediment, leading to deposition.
It is called a soil deposit.
Mudflows typically do not deposit talus slopes. Talus slopes are formed by the accumulation of large rock fragments that have fallen down a slope or cliff face due to weathering. Mudflows, on the other hand, consist of a mixture of water, rock, and soil that flows downhill as a viscous fluid, often causing significant erosion and deposition of sediment.

No. Rock and soil are mixtures.
Loose rock fragments can be caused by weathering, or indeed erosion. They can be found in a scree slope, and alluvial fan, a beach, in the soil (they are the soil, sometimes). Loose rock fragments are known to a geologist as 'Unconsolidated sediment' which can be classified into various groups. Consider alluvium; the deposit from a river.
