In the question "which does not belong; shale, basalt, sandstone, or limestone?" the answer is Basalt. Shale, Sandstone, and Limestone are all sedimentary rocks. Basalt is an Igneous rock. Shale and Sandstone are both clastic sedimentary rocks which means they come from the "pieces" or remains of rocks after weathering. Limestone is a chemical sedimentary rock which means it is deposited as a result of a chemical reaction, or a collection of material made by organisms, such as coral.
volcanic basalt dykes are molten basalt that rose through existing sedimentary rock, and crystallized when it rose to the surface about 32 million years ago. The magma cools and hardens which creats a basalt stack, resistant to weather. Basalt is a common extrusive volcanic rock.It color is usually gray or close to black.
