Do mudflows deposit talus slope?
Mudflows typically do not deposit talus slopes. Talus slopes are formed by the accumulation of large rock fragments that have fallen down a slope or cliff face due to weathering. Mudflows, on the other hand, consist of a mixture of water, rock, and soil that flows downhill as a viscous fluid, often causing significant erosion and deposition of sediment.
How do scientists determine if a deposit of rocks is till rock or not?
Scientists determine if a deposit of rocks is till rock by examining its composition, texture, and characteristics such as unsorted grains, angular shapes, and presence of clay. Till rocks typically have a heterogeneous mixture of rock fragments that show evidence of glacial transport and deposition. Analysis of the sediments and landforms surrounding the deposit can also provide clues to its origin.
When is a stream most likely to deposit the rock and soil that its carrying?
A stream is most likely to deposit the rock and soil it is carrying when its velocity decreases, such as in a meander or where the gradient lessens. This allows the stream to no longer have enough energy to transport the sediment, leading to deposition.
A deposit of fine-grained angular particles is called?
A deposit of fine-grained angular particles is called a breccia. Breccias are formed from the accumulation of broken rock fragments that are typically angular in shape and can vary in size.
What rock or mineral is used to melt ice on streets and sidewalks?
In the UK, it is known as rock salt. The rock salt (the dried remains of ancient seas) is an underground deposit of salt that is mined and used to grit icy roads and pavements.

What mineral deposit do you have in the country?
There are several mineral deposits in the island country of the Philippines. The country has shown much potential for copper, gold, nickel, chromite, and other metals, as well as marble, limestone, clays, feldspar, rock aggregates, and dolomite.

In which environment might you expect a deposit of rock salt or rock gypsum to have formed?
You might expect a deposit of rock salt or rock gypsum to have formed in a shallow, evaporating basin such as a salt flat or a desert play. These minerals are often deposited when water evaporates, leaving behind the salt or gypsum crystals.
