Chapter Six Sediments & Sedimentary Rocks Sediment • Sediment - loose, solid particles originating from: – Weathering and erosion of pre-existing rocks – Chemical precipitation from solution, including secretion by organisms in water • Classified by particle size – – – – – – Boulder - >256 mm Cobble - 64 to 256 mm Pebble - to 64 mm Sand - 1/16 to mm Silt - 1/256 to 1/16 mm Clay - [...]... • • • • • • % of sedimentary rocks in outer 10 miles Basic classification of sedimentary rocks Most sedi Rocks – Chemical or detrital Definition of sedimentary rocks Sorting by wind, glaciers (well sorted vs poor sorting) Degree of sedimentary particle rounding Bedding plane, sedimentary structure, occurrence Diagenesis, Lithification, Cementation Composition of detrital sedimentary rocks Environment...
