What heaps of frost-weathered rock fragments?
Heaps of frost-weathered rock fragments are known as scree or talus. They form when frost action causes rocks to fracture and break apart, creating a loose accumulation of debris at the base of cliffs or steep slopes. Scree can be found in mountainous and glaciated regions.
What are loose rock fragments?
Loose rock fragments can be caused by weathering, or indeed erosion. They can be found in a scree slope, and alluvial fan, a beach, in the soil (they are the soil, sometimes). Loose rock fragments are known to a geologist as 'Unconsolidated sediment' which can be classified into various groups. Consider alluvium; the deposit from a river.
