Where are sediments deposited where they cannot be eroded again?

∙ 13y ago
Sediments are deposited at the bottom of lakes, rivers, seas, and other large bodies of water, as well as certain depressions or basins on land. After being covered with additional layers of sediment, they could undergo the processes of sedimentary rock formation. Eventually, however, they could once again be subjected to weathering and erosion.

A sedimentary rock is weathered by wind and water The rock breaks down into sediments again If the sediments become cemented what type of rock will be formed?
sedimentary rock
How can basalt become part of a sedimentary rock?
It has to first be eroded into relatively small particles (sediment) and then cemented together again.
When rocks are eroded and they break down into smaller pieces of rocks and minerals called what?
Sediment.
What resource cannot be made again by people or nature?
people
Can you use the same paper again and again?
as long as there is no writing on it, you can recycle paper. This helps the environment. when you are talking about writing a paper, no. you cannot use the same paper again and again.
Deposition is part of the process of?
When a rock is eroded the particles have to go somewhere. After they are moved (by wind, water, etc.) they will eventually be deposited. These deposited particles are then subject to being eroded again.
What happens to the mountains and deep valleys that makes the earth's surface uneven?
The valleys cut their way down to sea level and as this happens the mountains get eroded away to (by rain, ice and wind). The end stage is that the flatish land surface becomes almost level with the high tide of the sea. However the sediments eroded away get deposited on the ocean deeps and when the continents crash together again these form new mountains.
What can happento a sedimentary rock once it is formed?
Sedimentary rocks can be eroded into sediments and form sedimentary rocks again, they can melt and become igneous rocks, and they can undergo extreme heat and pressure and become metamorphic rocks.
When did they start diamond mining?
Diamond mining started thousands of years ago in India. However, modern diamond mining as we know it today began in the late 19th century in South Africa with the discovery of diamond deposits in Kimberley.
A sedimentary rock is weathered by wind and water The rock breaks down into sediments again If the sediments become cemented what type of rock will be formed?
sedimentary rock
Rock can become magma again as a result of?
erosion
When rocks exposed they start to be eroded does the cycle start again?
Yes. The eroded particles can make their way - by streams and rivers to the oceans where they would form the seabed. Layer upon layer of such sediments would exert pressure on lower sediments so that these particles coalesced into sedimentary rock.You can also have metamorphic rocks which are formed under intense heat and pressure under the surface of the earth. For example, limestone is a sedimentary form of [mainly] calcium carbonate. Give it lots of heat and pressure and you get the metamorphic version: marble.Finally, there are rocks that for when the magma cools and solidifies. This could be at the boundaries of the earth's molten core or in volcanic ejecta.
Deposition is part of what process?
it is apart of science!
What happens to a sedimentary rock after weathering?
I becomes sediments again or becomes igneous or metamorphic rock
Can a person marry again if he is legally separated?

Are all sedimentary rocks formed from natural cement?
No. They can be made of any type of rock that was weathered, eroded, and squished back togather again.
