The rock type most likely to be monomineralic is a metamorphic rock, specifically a type like marble, which is composed almost entirely of the mineral calcite or dolomite. Another example is quartzite, primarily made up of quartz grains. These rocks form under specific conditions that promote the dominance of a single mineral, making them excellent examples of monomineralic rocks.
Monomineralic rocks are composed of a single mineral, such as limestone (composed of calcite) or quartzite (composed of quartz). This means that the entire rock is made up of the same mineral throughout, giving it a uniform composition.
A single bed of sedimentary rock that consists of one type of material is known as a monomineralic bed. This type of bed forms when sediments are predominantly composed of a single mineral, such as quartz or calcite, and accumulate in a continuous layer. Monomineralic beds are common in environments where one type of mineral is abundant and dominant in the sedimentation process.

An unconformity is most likely to be found in sedimentary rock, where there is a gap in the geologic record due to erosion or non-deposition of sediments.

A rock such as quartzite or marble consists of basically one mineral. So yes, a rock could consist of a single mineral, although most definitions describe a rock as consisting of combinations of minerals.
Sedimentary rock is where we look for fossils.
