How thick is the sedimentary rock in the interior plains and why is it so thick?

Dominant Type of Rock for interior plains?
Sedimentary rock is the dominant type of rock found in the interior plains. It is formed by the accumulation of sediments over time, such as sand, clay, and organic materials, which are then compacted and cemented together. Sedimentary rocks in the interior plains often include limestone, sandstone, and shale.
Why is the bedrock of the interior plains so thick?
The bedrock of the interior plains is thick due to a continuous accumulation of sediments over millions of years. Factors such as erosion, deposition, and tectonic activity have contributed to the gradual buildup of sedimentary rock layers, resulting in the thick bedrock found in the region.

What are the differences between the Canadian shield and the interior plains?
The Canadian Shield is a large geological region characterized by ancient rocks and extensive forests, covering a significant portion of Canada. In contrast, the Interior Plains are a vast region of flat or gently rolling terrain located to the west and south of the Canadian Shield. The Canadian Shield has more rugged topography and older rock formations compared to the relatively flat and younger sedimentary rocks found in the Interior Plains.
How thick are average sheet rock walls?
Interior sheet rock walls are normally 4-1/2" thick.
What is cemetation mean?

What parts of Canada largely contain sedimentary rocks and what minerals are found in them?
Canada's largest deposits of sedimentary rocks can be found in Alberta and Saskatchewan (the Great Plains area). Some of the minerals found inside of sedimentary rock include coal, oil, natural gas, and potash.
Is the interior plains a landform region?
Yes, the interior plains are a landform region characterized by flat or gently rolling terrain. They are located between the Appalachian Mountains and the Rocky Mountains in North America. The region is mostly covered by sedimentary rock and has fertile soils, making it suitable for agriculture.
How did the interior plains come to have such a large deposits of fossil fuels?
They have a lot of fossil fuels due to the rock(which i believe is either Sedimentary, or Metamorphic and Igneous). They have to drill holes in the rocks to find the minerals and fuel.
