Conglomerate
Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock made up of rounded pebbles cemented together.
If the pebbles are rounded, then the rock is a conglomerate. If the pebbles have sharper edges, the the rock is a breccia. Both are types of sedimentary rock.
Conglomerate; a clastic sedimentary rock composed of rounded pebbles and sand cemented together.
Conglomerates are sedimentary rocks consisting of rounded fragments.
Breccia is made up of pebbles, boulders, cobbles or gravel that are angular in shape. Conglomerate is similar to Breccia but have a rounded shape instead of angular shape.
Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock made up of rounded pebbles cemented together.
Conglomerate forms as a result of the consolidation of sediments which contain rounded pebbles, cobbles, or even boulders of rocks of various types. The rocks that make up the conglomerate are compacted and are cemented together by silica, clay, iron, or calcitic mineral cements which bind all of the clasts together.
Rounded pebbles: conglomerate. Angular gravel: breccia.

No. If it has rounded pebbles, it's probably called conglomerate, a sedimentary rock containing rounded rock fragments from 3/4" to 6' in diameter that may have a sandy matrix. Sandstone is made up of much smaller grains.

Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock. It has pebbles glued in the rock so it looks like a lot of pebbles put together.
Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock made up of tiny rounded pebbles cemented together by sediments that pile on top of them. The pebbles become cemented together by minerals like silica, calcite, and iron oxides.
