Sediment rocks
Climate and the type of rock
Rock salt is formed from the evaporation of saturated solutions that are composed primarily of dissolved halite. In this case, there is no true sediment, only the solution containing the dissolved mineral that was originally present in weathered and eroded rock.
Sandstone, Limestone and Shale are all examples of sedimentary rock, formed by layer after layer of different types of water born sediment laid down over millions of years and compressed into rock. The different types of sediment determine which type of rock is formed, obviously sand being the main component of sandstone, mud can form shale. Igneous rock is rock formed by volcanic processes, different minerals in the molten rock will determine it's type, such as granite. Metamorphic rock is the third type of rock formed by extreme pressure and heat upon sedimentary rock, marble being formed from limestone, slate from shale.
All rocks are subject to erosion and dissolution. The result is particles that are small enough to be called, dust, sand or sediment. If these particles are squeezed over long periods of time, they may 'cement' together to form a 'sedimentary' rock that has its own structure and properties. Sandstone is a common type - stone made of cemented sand.
Sedimentry
B The organism must be buried in sediment soon after it dies.
Metamorphic rock can turn into another type of rock through processes like weathering and erosion, which break down the rock into sediment. This sediment can then undergo compaction and cementation to form sedimentary rock, or melt and cool to form igneous rock through processes like metamorphism.
Sedimentary rocks can wear away to form sediment through weathering processes such as erosion, transportation, and deposition. These rocks are formed from the accumulation and cementation of sediments over time.
When layers of sediment get squeezed together, they form a rock type called sedimentary rock. This process, known as lithification, involves the compression and cementation of sediment particles over time. Sedimentary rocks can include materials such as sandstone, shale, and limestone.
Sedimentary rock.
Because ingenious rock is a type of rock, sedimentary hardens over time with the sediment(gravel, rocks, dirt) inside it. So in this case the fossils or dinosaur bones harden over time into the sediment and form into the rock.
Sediment with a diameter of 0.0002 cm would likely form siltstone, a fine-grained sedimentary rock. Siltstones are composed of particles smaller than sand but larger than clay, and they form when silt-sized particles compact and cement together over time.
Clay minerals can cement layers of sediment together to form shale, a type of sedimentary rock characterized by its fine-grained nature and distinct layering.
Sediments of 0.0002 cm in diameter would likely form siltstone, a type of sedimentary rock composed primarily of silt-sized particles. Siltstone has a fine-grained texture, as silt particles are smaller than sand but larger than clay.
