Clastic (those formed of particles of other rocks) and non-clastic (organic and chemical precipitate or evaporite rocks).
Coal and Sandstone are two types of sedimentary rocks.
There are many different types of sedimentary rocks. The three main types are chemical, biochemical and clastic rock. Some that fall into these three categories include sandstone, shale, limestone, gypsum, chert, coal, and amber.
Two types of sedimentary rocks are sandstone and limestone. Sandstone is made from grains of sand that have been compacted and cemented together, while limestone is primarily made from the accumulation of the shells and skeletons of marine organisms.
There are three main types of rocks found on earth and they are; Igneous: are intrusive rocks that have come up from with the mantle or the earths crust. For instance a granite is an intrusive or extrusive rock that was either erupted (extrusive) from a volcano or but brought up in a magma chamber (intrusive), whilst a basalt is a lava flow and is volcanic. Sedimentary: is rock made from sediment being deposited over millions of years and then hardened under pressure, temperature and diagenesis. A sandstone or a mudstone are the best examples of sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary rocks are divided in to two different groups siliciclastic rocks and carbonate rocks. Metamorphic: are any of the two previous rock types that have had either there physical or chemical structure changed due to pressure or temperature. An example of this is for sedimentary rock a sandstone is metamorphosed into a quartzite and for igneous rocks a granite is metamorphosed into a gneiss.
Limestone or Sandstone are two examples of sedimentary rocks. Two examples of sedimentary rocks are slate (fine silt) and chalk (shell remains of sea creatures).

Sedimentary and igneous are types of rock (the other type is metamorphic). Sedimentary rocks are quite soft, and include chalk and limestone. Igneous rocks include granite and basalt. They are formed when magma cools.

No two sedimentary rocks are shaped the same, there are many different shapes

Rocks are classified into two main groups based on how they are formed: igneous rocks, which are formed from cooling and solidifying magma or lava, and sedimentary rocks, which are formed from the accumulation and compression of sediments.
The Earth's crust is primarily made up of igneous rocks such as basalt and granite, as well as sedimentary rocks like sandstone and limestone. Metamorphic rocks, which are formed from other rock types through heat and pressure, are also found in the Earth's crust.
