Question
- which rock or mineral is composed of more than one sediment?
Brief Explanations
Sedimentary rocks like conglomerate are clastic sedimentary rocks formed by cementing together multiple types of sediments (such as pebbles, sand, and silt, which are different sediment sizes/particles). Minerals are single, naturally occurring crystalline substances, so they are not made of multiple sediments. Conglomerate is a clear example of a rock composed of more than one sediment type.
