Sedimentary rocks record;
1. Time (Age) of formation.
2. Environment of formation.
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).
The two main types of sedimentary rocks are clastic (detrital) rocks, which are made of pre-existing rock fragments cemented together, and chemical rocks, which form from minerals that precipitate out of solution.
Sediments can change into sedimentary rocks through processes like compaction and cementation. They can also be eroded and transported to new locations by forces like wind and water.
Coal and Sandstone are two types of sedimentary rocks.
High pressure and high temperature deep underground make it possible for sedimentary rocks to undergo metamorphism, which leads to the formation of metamorphic rocks. These conditions cause the existing minerals in sedimentary rocks to recrystallize and form new minerals, changing the rock's texture and composition.
No two sedimentary rocks are shaped the same, there are many different shapes

Sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
They are called chemical sedimentary rocks. Rock salt and rock gypsum are two examples.
sedimentary rock and igenous rock.
mechabic and organic
High pressure and high temperature deep underground make it possible for sedimentary rocks to undergo metamorphism, which leads to the formation of metamorphic rocks. These conditions cause the existing minerals in sedimentary rocks to recrystallize and form new minerals, changing the rock's texture and composition.
Two of the most common fates of igneous rocks are to become sediment (and later sedimentary rocks) or to become metamorphic rocks.
