Conglomerates form from clastic sediments which are products of weathering, so, conglomeratic materials could be formed from any other rock type. Conglomerate itself is an Example of Mechanically formed Sedimentary Rock.

What Conglomerates are an example of which type of rock?

Conglomerates are a type of sedimentary rock characterized by their composition of rounded clasts, or large fragments, that are cemented together by a finer matrix. They typically form in environments with high-energy conditions, such as riverbeds or beach settings, where larger particles are transported and deposited. The clasts can vary in size and composition, often including pebbles, gravel, or even boulders.


Compare and contrast conglomerates and breccia?

Conglomerates are dominantly composed of rounded gravel and breccias are composed of dominantly angular gravel.


What causes the difference between breccias and conglomerante?

The difference between breccias and conglomerate is that breccias are angular and conglomerates are smooth. What causes rocks to be smooth is transportation, such as when rocks are in a stream and are worn down. Therefore transportation is what causes the difference between breccias and conglomerates.
