Compaction is a very important part of the lithification for which sediment gravel sand mud cobble?

Lithification processes, collectively referred to as "diagenesis," include: compaction (example: clay to shale), cementation (example: sand to sandstone), and partial recrystallization (example: lime mud to limestone). Note: Pressure by itself does not by compaction lithify sand to sandstone. Sandstone diagenesis is mostly by cementation and also, sometimes, by partial recrystallization and crystal overgrowths. The same is so of gravel that lithifies to conglomerate.


What chemicals does a rock quarry produce?

A rock quarry produces rock - gravel, cobble, pea gravel, stones, slabs, all grades and sizes of rock- as its products. None of these are commonly called chemicals. In the way of waste there are some chemicals: * Explosives residues * Anti-dust agents for loose rock (latex etc.) * Oils and greases from equipment. * Gaseous emissions - CO2, SOx, NOx (from fuels)
