1987Sedimentary rock is composed of framework grains, matrix, chemically precipitated cement, and pores (Fig. 8.1). Framework grains and matrix are generally deposited from a fluid medium after transport. Transport distances may be thousands of kilometers or only a few meters. The grains, as the name indicates, form the framework of the rock.

Abstract Over vast areas of the undeformed platform of southwestern Canada, the sedimentary cover of the ancient North American Craton is entirely of Phanerozoic age. In northwestern Canada, on the other hand, thick Proterozoic strata intervene between Phanerozoic deposits and crystalline basement (Fig. 4A.1).
