Micrite is a limestone constituent formed of calcareous particles ranging in diameter up to 4 μm formed by the recrystallization of lime mud.
The term was coined in 1959 by Robert Folk for his carbonate rock classification system.
Micrite is derived from MICRocrystalline calcITE.
Micrite is a type of limestone composed of tiny carbonate mud particles, while travertine is a form of limestone deposited by mineral springs, typically porous and often banded. An easy way to distinguish between them is that micrite is typically fine-grained and lacks visible pores or bands, while travertine is more porous and may display banding due to mineral deposits.
Limestone-micrite rocks are typically found in shallow marine environments, such as platform carbonate settings or coastal lagoons. They form from the accumulation of fine-grained carbonate mud that becomes lithified over time. These rocks are commonly associated with sedimentary environments that have low energy conditions and high amounts of organic matter.
Pelmicrite is a type of limestone consisting predominately of micrite, produced in low-energy environments like deep marine settings. Pelsparite, on the other hand, contains a mixture of micrite and sparite, suggesting deposition in higher-energy conditions like shallow marine or beach environments. The presence of sparite in pelsparite indicates periods of increased energy and possibly shallower water compared to pelmicrite.
A rock splinter is commonly referred to as a rock shard or rock fragment.

micrite is used in cement
Micrite is a fine-grained limestone composed of fossil fragments and calcite crystals, while chert is a microcrystalline or cryptocrystalline sedimentary rock composed of silica. Micrite is often lighter in color and softer than chert, which appears as a hard, dense rock with a smooth or waxy texture. Additionally, micrite may fizz when exposed to acid due to its calcite content, while chert does not react to acid.

a mushroom rock is not a sedimentary rock.
