GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Conglomerate is a clastic sedimentary rock that forms the cementing of rounded cobble and pebble sized rock fragments. Conglomerate is formed by river movement or ocean wave action. The cementing agents that fill the spaces to form the solid rock conglomerate are silica, calcite, or iron oxides.

Detailed explanation-2: -Conglomerates are clastic sedimentary rock that contains mostly pebble-size rounded clasts. The spaces between the clasts are generally filled with smaller particles and/or chemical cement that then binds and formed the rock matrices together.

Detailed explanation-3: -A clastic rock is a sedimentary rock that forms when rock fragments are (compacted) squeezed together and then cemented. Clastic rocks are grouped by the size of the rock fragments, or particles, of which they are made.

Detailed explanation-4: -Conglomerate is a sedimentary rock made of rounded pebbles and sand that is usually held together (cemented) by silica, calcite or iron oxide. It is a stone similar to sandstone but the rock particles are rounded or angular gravel rather than sand.

Detailed explanation-5: -Shale is a rock made mostly of clay, siltstone is made up of silt-sized grains, sandstone is made of sand-sized clasts, and conglomerate is made of pebbles surrounded by a matrix of sand or mud. Biologic Sedimentary Rocks: Biologic sedimentary rocks form when large numbers of living things die.
