- sedimentary
- large rocks are eroded down these piece settle on the sea bed as sediment layers build up the heat and
pressure turns the lowest layers into
- sedimentary rock
- conglomerate made of stones held together with clay or
calcium
- sandstone this is A porus rock made of layers of sand
- coal formed by dead plants

white its chalk
