Sedimentary rocks are created when layers of debris are compacted and cemented together. These types of rocks are also known as secondary rocks because they often result from fragments of other rocks being cemented together. The type of sedimentary rock you seem to be asking about is organic. Organic sedimentary rock is formed when the sedimentary debris is compiled through organic processes. For example rocks forming as succesive layers of substrate pile onto one another and compact over time.
What else can I help you with?
When rock is weathered and later pressed into layers what kind of rock is formed?
sedimentary
What kind of mountain range is formed when rock layers are sqeezed and forced upward?
fold mountain
If a fault occurs on an area where rock layers have folded what kind of fault will it be?
A fault that occurs on folded rock layers is likely to be a thrust fault, where one block of rock is pushed up and over the other. This type of fault is common in areas where horizontal compression forces have folded the rock layers.
What kind of rock is Ballard Point made of?
Ballard Point is made of sedimentary rock, specifically sandstone. Sandstone is formed from compressed layers of sand grains over millions of years.
What kind of rock only forms in water?
Sedimentary rocks, such as limestone, sandstone, and shale, are primarily formed in water. These rocks result from the accumulation and compression of sediments at the bottom of bodies of water over long periods of time.

What kind of fossil is a leaf inprint?
It is formed slat rock and covered up with layers and layers of rock and sediment.
Does TIFF file retain layers?
yes, but you will have very large file if layers are included and experts recommend .psd format for files with layers. If you work in Photoshop better choice is .psd format when layers are included in file, if you need to save in .tif, after choosing this format it will ask you for kind of compression, best choice is LZW, if you choose none, then file size will be huge.

What kind of rocks form when other pieces of rock and matter gather into layers?
a sedimentary rock is formed. depending on which rocks were squished, you can get different rocks
What causes reverse faults?
the answer is that compression is the kind of stress.
