What are Rocks made from fragments of minerals or other rocks called?
Clastic sedimentary rock.
Why so many types of rocks?
There are many types of rocks because of different texture, and composition. For example, igneous rock is mostly consist of Iron and Nickel. Sedimentary consists of a lot of composition because it made up of the cementation of other rocks. Heat and pressure creates metamorphic rocks.
What rock are mountains made from?
It is made of old, flat lying sedimentary rocks (it is the flat area of a large open syncline fold), which define the flat table top and the feature was formed as a remnant as the continents split either side of Africa and drifted away. In other words the other bits of the geological formation are now on other continents.
Are rocks made from magma?
Some rock (igneous) is made from solidifying magma. Other rock is formed from different processes.
What are the two main types of sedimentary rocks?
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.
How does the sedimentary rocks change into other types of rocks?
by the rock cycle :)
A sedimentary rock formed from pieces of other rocks is called?
A sedimentary rock formed from pieces of other rocks is called a conglomerate. Conglomerates are made up of rounded or angular fragments of various sizes and types of rocks that have been cemented together.
What are the two types of crust and what type of rocks are they made of?
igneous rock and sedimentary rock
What rock is made from particles of other rocks?
Clastic sedimentary rock is composed of cemented particles of other rocks.
Is metamorphic rocks made up of sedimentary rock igneous rock or other metamorphic rocks?
Metamorphic rocks
A sedimentary rock made up of fragments of other rocks such as Breccia is?
Breccia is a sedimentary rock composed of angular fragments of other rocks cemented together. It forms when fragments are compacted and cemented together by minerals, creating a mosaic-like appearance. Breccia can consist of a variety of rock types depending on the environment in which it formed.
How do intrusive rocks relate to below ground?
Intrusive rocks are formed when rock is squeezed into underground cavities in other types of rock, where it crystallizes.
What is a sedimentary rock made up of rounded fragments of other rocks is called?
A sedimentary rock made up of rounded fragments of other rocks is called a conglomerate.
What are Rocks made from fragments of minerals or other rocks called?

What rock types are found in mt schank?
noodle rocks made by the chineses peoples
What types of rocks are apart of Igneous rocks?
Igneous rocks are rocks that are type of rock that forms from molten rock.
What changes other types of rock to metamorphic?
Heating and pressurization changes igneous and sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rock.
