A Classification of Sedimentary Rocks
The Journal of Geology, 1948A simple field and laboratory classification of sedimentary rocks is proposed. It is based fundamentally on composition and texture, with the primary divisions determined by the mode of origin of the constituents. Tt is tripartite in nature, consisting of (1) a dominantly fragmental division, including conglomerates, sandstones, and shales; (2) a ...

The Organization of Sedimentary Rocks
SEPM Journal of Sedimentary Research, 1950Attempted practical applications of existing classifications of sedimentary rocks commonly encounter difficulties and inconsistencies: (1) sediments normally unassociated during deposition are artificially grouped together; (2) inferences about environment, degree of tectonic influence, and other factors not everywhere legible in the rocks are required

Sediments and Sedimentary Rocks
2018We are on more familiar ground in this chapter, looking at processes and materials found in the world all around us. Even the names of sedimentary rocks are well known—sandstone, shale, limestone, and so on. Clearly, these materials are highly relevant to vineyard geology because more than three-quarters of the land surface is sedimentary in origin ...
