Conglomerate is a clastic sedimentary rock that has rounded pebbles included among its clasts.
Gneiss is a high-grade foliate metamorphic rock characterized by alternating light and dark bands. It forms from the metamorphism of granite or schist.
Pieces of gneiss, granite, and basalt can be found in the same conglomerate rock through a process known as sedimentary mixing. This occurs when rocks of different types are broken down into smaller fragments and then carried by water or wind to a new location where they become cemented together in a conglomerate.
A conglomerate is a sedimentary rock that forms from a mixture of various rock fragments. It is possible to find a piece of granite gneiss and basalt in a single conglomerate because these different rock types can be eroded, transported, and deposited together in the same location where the conglomerate forms. Ultimately, the conglomerate will contain a mixture of rock fragments from different sources.
Concentric relates to circles or spheres with a common center, while conglomerate refers to a group of diverse or disparate elements that are combined together. In a geological context, a concentric structure has layers arranged around a center, while a conglomerate rock consists of various different types of rock fragments bound together.
Sandstone and conglomerate are both sedimentary rocks composed of grains of sand. The primary difference between them is that conglomerate contains larger grains, typically pebbles or cobbles, embedded within a matrix of sand and mud. Both rocks are formed through the process of sedimentation and cementation.
They are both metamorphic rocks. One difference is the rocks they are formed from. Gneiss is formed from Feldspar and Quartz. Gneiss can also contain muscovite, biotite and hornblende. Quartzite is formed from sandstone. Also Gneiss is more intensely foliated than Quartzite. This can be seen in the bands formed in Gneiss, while quartzite has no bands. Pure quartzite is white, while Gneiss is grey or pink, with dark streaks.
Gneiss metamorphosed from shale, sandstone, granite and conglomerate.
Conglomerate can include much larger clasts of rock.

A conglomerate merger is one between two strategically unrelated firms from which economic benefits is not possible for the bidder or the target. The merger between Walt Disney Company and American Broadcasting Company is a conglomerate merger.
A conglomerate corporation is a corporation made up of a number of different companies that operate in diversified fields while a multinational corporation manages production or delivers services in more than one country. It can also be referred to as an international corporation. They are not precisely relevant to each other as a corporation may be both multinational and conglomerate.

A Gneiss is a Metamorphic rock
Gneiss is foliated.
Both are foliated metamorphic rocks in which individual minerals can be seen with the naked eye. The difference is that gneiss is generally more coarsely crystalline and has color banding and schist smells bad.
