any rock can become a sedimentary rock.
Of all the rock on Earth's surface, 75% is sedimentary rock. But, sedimentary rock is only about 5% of the whole crust. Unlike igneous rock, which forms underground, sedimentary rock forms from materials at Earth's surface. Which this means that sedimentary rocks are more likely to be seen on the surface. Hope this helps :)
the granite melts into lava then cools becoming igneous. it erodes into sediment and then gets compressed into a sedimentary rock. the sedimentary rock becomes metamorphic with heat and pressure deep within Earth
Sedimentary is found below the ocean floor or area with water
Sedimentary rock goes deep in the Earth and reaches magma. It then melts and becomes part of the magma. Since the newly formed magma is less dense than the surrounding rock it is lighter than the surrounding rock and it goes up and cools. It then becomes an Igneous rock.

Anthracite is found.
because coal is deep inside the earth
A surprising amount of water is found deep inside the earth. Some artesian wells are between 3,000 and 5,000 feet below the surface.
When magma cools deep inside earth, igneous rockforms.
deep inside the earth
Sedimentary rocks get transformed into metamorphic and eventually igneous rocks in deep earth's crust.
Below certain depths the heat and pressure will turn sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock.
If buried deep enough in the earth, metamorphic.
Below certain depths the heat and pressure will turn sedimentary rock into metamorphic rock.

The three main types of rock found on Earth are called Igneous, Sedimentary and Metamorphic. Igneous rocks are formed from the compression and hardening of minerals deep inside the Earth, at tremendous temperature and pressure- granite is a good example. Sedimentary rock is formed by mineral deposits compacting down on top of each other, layer upon layer, over millions of years- these deposits can be carried in rainwater or on the wind, and also be the remains of long dead and pulverised plant or animal matter. Sandstone is a good example of Sedimentary rock, and so is coal!! Metamorphic rock is formed when two or more different types of rock are melted under the tremendous temperatures deep inside the Earth, and then melded together under colossal pressure before hardening again. Marble is a good instance of Metamorphic rock.
as coal is made of pplant remains that have been buried long ago,it is so deep inside earth.
