Real answer, no they aren't. Shells are made of minerals such as calcium, which molluscs derive from thei environment. The only shells that could be classed as rock aren't really shells at all but fossilised remains of them- fossils being the imprints left behind in sedimentary rocks by prehistoric animals and plants after their real remains have rotted away.
The sedimentary rock is many pieces of things like sand and shells compacted and cemented into a rock
Detrital Sedimentary Rock
The rock would be limestone, the mineral would be calcite.

Yes, mostly gravel from a landslide, and organic rocks
carbonaceous shells form limestone which in this case is a bio-chemical sedimentary rock

Limestone is a type of stone made up of microscopic particles of shells that have been cemented together. This sedimentary rock is formed over millions of years as the shells accumulate and compress into solid rock.
Limestone and chalk.
limestone-sedimentary
The cemented shells of marine organisms form limestone, which is a type of sedimentary rock. Limestone is predominantly composed of the mineral calcite and can contain fossilized remains of shells and other marine organisms.
No, shells are biomaterial, not rocks.
sedimentary
Sand is made up of crushed rock and sea-shells. The colour of the sand depends on what type of rock particles are in it.
Any Type Of Limestone
Limestone is a sedimentary rock that is often formed from the remains of dead marine organisms such as shells and coral. This type of rock is composed mainly of calcium carbonate.
