What else can I help you with?
Rocks formed from weathered debris from preexisisting rocks are called?
They are called clastic sedimentary rocks.
Are sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks chemical sedimentary rocks?
No, sedimentary rocks formed from fragments of other rocks are called clastic sedimentary rocks. Chemical sedimentary rocks form from minerals that are dissolved in water and precipitate out to form rocks like limestone or halite.
Are there any fossils in sedimentary rocks?
Yes all fossils occur in sedimentary rocks or rocks that began as sedimentary rocks.
What type of rocks can contain fossils on them?
Sedimentary rocks. and metamorphic rocks made form sedimentary rocks.
Are sedimentary rocks classified tofoliated sedimentary rocks?
No, sedimentary rocks are not classified as foliated. Foliation is a textural feature found in certain types of metamorphic rocks where minerals are aligned in layers or bands due to pressure and heat. Sedimentary rocks are formed by the accumulation and cementation of sediments and do not exhibit foliation.
What are the three types of rock and their formation?
there are 4 bill bob and jerry and the one in abi's head she likes to call a brain Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic.
Lithified detritus forms which kind of sedimentary rock?
Lithified detritus forms sedimentary rocks known as clastic rocks. These rocks are composed of fragments of pre-existing rocks or minerals, which have been physically weathered and transported before being deposited and compacted into a solid rock. Examples include sandstone, shale, and conglomerate.
Does an igneous rock always becomes a sedimentary rock?
No. There some very old igneous rocks to be found also it is possible for an igneous rock to become a metamorphic rock. Further, igneous rocks can not be turned into a sedimentary rocks directly. They must first be weathered and eroded and only then their detritus and remnants can be deposited as a new sedimentary deposit.
How each of the three kinds of sedimentary rocks form list one example of each kind of rock detritus chemical and organic?

Are there four kinds of rock?
There are three broad categories of rock (Igneous, Metamorphic and Sedimentary) but these are themselves further subdivided into a large number of differing rocks.
