Rock, sand, or dirt that has been carried away to a place by water, wind or a glacier.

Sedimentary rock is naturally formed in the Earth’s crust. It is formed when sediment deposits form layers, compact, and then cement together, creating a new rock. Sedimentary rocks are used for building materials, and sometimes they even contain fossils.

Igneous rock forms from melted rock (magma). Magma exists inside the earth’s surface, and it becomes lava when it is released through a volcanic eruption. When it cools, that is when it becomes igneous rock.

Metamorphic rocks are rocks that have been changed either in texture or in mineral composition by the influence of heat, pressure, stress (directed pressure), chemically active solutions or gasses or some other agent without the rock passing through a liquid phase. Any rock type (sedimentary, igneous or other metamorphic) can be subjected any one or any combination of the referenced agents.
