What sedimentary rocks are made of fragments of rocks minerals and shells?
Sedimentary rocks made from fragments of rocks, minerals, and shells are known as clastic sedimentary rocks. Examples include sandstone, shale, and conglomerate. These rocks form when pre-existing rocks are weathered, eroded, transported, and deposited in layers.
What percent of earths crust is made up of sedimentary rocks?
Approximately 75% of Earth's crust is composed of sedimentary rocks. These rocks are formed by the accumulation and cementation of mineral grains, organic matter, or chemical precipitates over time. Sedimentary rocks cover vast areas of the Earth's surface and provide valuable insights into the planet's geological history.

What percent of rocks are metamorphic sedimentary or igneous?
Roughly 75-80% of the Earth's crust is made up of igneous rocks, 15-20% are metamorphic rocks, and 5-10% are sedimentary rocks. These percentages can vary depending on the local geology and geological processes at work.

How are sedimentary rocks are made?
Sedimentary rocks are made by the majority of the crust are covered by a thin veneer of loose sediment, and the rock which is made as layers of this debris get compacted and cemented together.

Chemocal sedimentary rocks are made from?
Chemical sedimentary rocks are formed by the precipitation of minerals from water.
