Name four clastic sedimentary rocks and explain how these rocks form

Limestone: it can form organically from the accumulation of shell, coral, and fecal debris. It can also form chemically from the precipitation of calcium carbonate from lake or ocean water.

Breccia: Composed of large fragments and the spaces between the fragments are filled with smaller pieces and mineral cement

Rock Salt: forms from the evaporation of ocean or saline lake waters.

Sandstone: forms from sand size weathering debris in e nvironments where large amounts of sand can accumulate include beaches, deserts, flood plains and deltas.
