Foremost would be pressure, usually from burial by additional sediments. The other processes take it from there.
Clastic sedimentary rocks are made of fragments from rocks, minerals, and shells. These fragments, called clasts, are compacted and cemented together over time to form rocks like sandstone, shale, and conglomerate.
No, sedimentary rocks formed from broken fragments are called clastic sedimentary rocks. Organic sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation of organic material such as plant debris or remains of marine organisms.
A sedimentary rock made up of rounded fragments of other rocks is called a conglomerate.
The class of sedimentary rocks made of fragments of rock minerals and shells is known as clastic sedimentary rocks. These rocks form from the accumulation and lithification of sediments such as sand, silt, clay, and sometimes organic material. Examples include sandstone, shale, and conglomerate.
Sedimentary rocks. Sandstone is a common example of a sedimentary rock that is formed from the accumulation and cementation of sand-sized grains of mineral and rock fragments.
Sedimentary rocks made of weathered rock fragments are called clastic sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed from the accumulation and cementation of fragments that have been weathered, eroded, and transported from their original source. Examples include sandstone, shale, and conglomerate.
No, sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks are called clastic sedimentary rocks. Chemical sedimentary rocks form from minerals that are dissolved in water and precipitate out to form rocks like limestone or halite.

Clastic sedimentary rocks.
Sedimentary rocks made from fragments of rocks, minerals, and shells are known as clastic sedimentary rocks. Examples include sandstone, shale, and conglomerate. These rocks form when pre-existing rocks are weathered, eroded, transported, and deposited in layers.

No, sedimentary rocks formed from broken fragments are called clastic sedimentary rocks. Organic sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation of organic material such as plant debris or remains of marine organisms.
Some sedimentary rocks are particles and rock fragments that become cemented together. Examples of sedimentary rocks are chalk, sandstone, limestone and shale.
