Sedimentary rock classification
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.

The sedimentary rocks of macaronesia
Geologische Rundschau, 1974In all the archipelagos forming Macaronesia, volcanis predominate, but pre-Quaternary sediments are also present, though playing a humble role. Calcareous deposits have by far the greatest significance throughout the known stratigraphic record. Tertiary occurrences tend to be thin, show more gentle dips, whereas the Mesozoics attain thicknesses of 400 ...

The Morphology of Sedimentary Rocks
1987The formation of sedimentary rocks in sedimentary basins can be described as follows. Rock grains - formed by erosion, sand, dust, or skeletons of marine animals - fall to the bottom of a body of water overlying the sedimentary basin. This process of sedimentation buries earlier sediments which descend downward into the earth as the process continues ...

Microstructures of sedimentary rocks
2004Introduction Although this book is mainly concerned with igneous, metamorphic and deformation processes, in this chapter I briefly review the main sedimentary microstructures, partly because they need to be understood in order to interpret residual sedimentary microstructures in some metamorphic rocks.
