STEPS IN THE FORMATION OF SEDIMENTARY ROCK
Sedimentation starts when rocks get weathered by rains and winds. The eroded sediments will be washed o scarried in the water. Over time, more sediments will pile up in the water and compresses the lower layers. Strata of layers will happen as time passes by. The salt and dissolved ions in the water act as glue to make it into a rock mass. The rock mass formed is now what we call a sedimentary rock. n
