Are all sedimentary rocks made the same way?
Hi jar. I wanted to take this "class" with you---as I never understood Geology that well. Maybe I can learn something along the way. I was curious as to your question regarding sedimentary rocks.
I started reading this article on Sedimentary Rocks from a Tulane University Geology Teacher, but I have never studied Geology before so I wanted some of our EvC folks to help explain it to me better.
