Sedimentary RocksSedimentary Rocks• Igneous rocks are the

most common rocks on Earth, but because most of them exist below the surface you might not have seen too many of them.

• 75 percent of the rocks exposed at the surface are sedimentary rocks.

What is sediment?• SedimentsSediments are loose materials such as rock

fragments, mineral grains, and bits of shell that have been moved by wind, water, ice, or gravity.

• Sediments come from already-existing rocks that are weathered and eroded.

• Sedimentary rockSedimentary rock forms when sediments are pressed and cemented together, or when minerals form from solutions.

Sedimentary RocksSedimentary RocksSedimentary rocks may be made of rock fragments—sediments—or by chemical reactions. The classification of sediments is shown below.

Clastic rocks–made of cemented sediments—Clastic rocks–made of cemented sediments—are classified by their grain sizes.are classified by their grain sizes.

Non-clastic rocks form by chemical precipitation Non-clastic rocks form by chemical precipitation (settling out from a solution.) Limestone is made (settling out from a solution.) Limestone is made from calcite, chert from quartz, and halite is rock from calcite, chert from quartz, and halite is rock salt.salt.

• The most important of these is coal. Anthracite coal results from the greatest pressure and releases the most energy when burned. Other varieties are bituminous and lignite. “Petrified” (permineralized) wood is another organic rock.

Radiometric dating provides an accurate way to estimate the age of

fossils. • Relative dating estimates

the time during which an organism lived.– It compares the placement

of fossils in layers of rock.– Scientists infer the order in

which species existed.
