What kind of rock is sandstone?
at its most basic sandstone is a sedimentary rock.
What kind of rock can be broken into fragments that may later form sedimentary rock?
Any rock can be broken up and later form a sedimentary rock.
When sedimentary rock is heated it changes into marble what kind of rock is a marble?
a metamorphic rock
What kind of rock does not require heat to form?
Sedimentary rock. Because when weathering and erosion occurs to igneous rock, the igneous become sediments and the sediments condense and cool, forming sedimentary rock. Therefore, sedimentary rock doesn't need heat to form.
Is organic rock a type of sedimentary rock?

Is dolomite a sedimentary rock or metamorphic?

sedimentary
Is dolomite clastic or non clastic sedimentary rock?
dolomite is a MINERAL. it is NOT considered a sedimentary rock of any kind. sedimentary rocks are composed of minerals, fragments or particles of other rocks(sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous) and/or organic material, and may or may not contain dolomite. to help you understand: if you think of dolomite as a pure element, then sedimentary rocks are mixtures of different elements
What type of rock is dolonstone?
Dolostone is a sedimentary rock primarily composed of the mineral dolomite. It forms from the deposition and subsequent lithification of dolomite-rich sediments. Dolostone usually originates in marine environments where magnesium-rich seawater triggers dolomite precipitation.
What is the metamorphosed form of dolomite?
The metamorphosed form of dolomite is called marble. Dolomite is a sedimentary rock primarily composed of the mineral dolomite, while marble is a metamorphic rock that forms from the recrystallization of limestone or dolomite under high heat and pressure.
What kind a of rock can be formed from evaporation?
Evaporites such as halite, gypsum, anhydrate and the evaporitic forms of carbonates such as calcite and dolomite which are all sedimentary rocks.
Is vesuvianite a igneous sedimentary or metamorphic rock?
It can be sedimentary when mixed with dolomite or metamorphic when mixed with greenschist A.T. Mineralogist
What is a sedimentary rock composed of calcium magnesium carbonate?
A sedimentary rock composed of calcium magnesium carbonate is known as dolomite. It forms from the mineral dolomite, which is similar to limestone but contains magnesium in addition to calcium. Dolomite often forms in marine environments through the replacement of limestone by magnesium-rich fluids.
Is dolostone a mineral or a rock?
Dolostone is a rock. Dolomite is the mineral often composing dolostone.
What type of rock is the mosaic canyon?
Mosaic Canyon is primarily composed of dolomite, which is a type of sedimentary rock. Dolomite is a form of limestone that has been subjected to heat and pressure, resulting in a denser and harder rock.
