The process is called compaction and that is when the mineral grains are pressed together but have pore spaces in between and hot fluids can pass through. Cementation is when they are fully glued on and there aren't any pore spaces.
The process by which sediments are pressed together to form rock is called lithification. It involves the compaction of sediments due to the weight of overlying layers and the cementation of minerals to bind the sediment particles together. Over time, this process transforms loose sediments into solid rock.
The process of pressing sediments together to form solid rock is called compaction. It occurs when layers of sediment accumulate on top of each other, with the weight of the overlying layers causing the sediments to be pressed tightly together.
When sediments of living things are pressed together, they can form fossils. Over time, the pressure and minerals in the sediments can turn the organic material into rock, preserving the remains of the living organisms as fossils.
When cemented together, clastic sedimentary rock.

The process where grains are pressed together by the weight of sediments above is called compaction. This process leads to the formation of sedimentary rocks through the gradual compression of grains over time.

OK, first the sediments are deposited then they under go cementation (being ''glued together'' by minerals that are left after evaporation) or it can go through compaction ( pressed together). And that is really all that happens.
