Composition, Texture, and Classification of Sedimentary Rocks - Sed Strat 1

Explore the composition, texture, and classification of sedimentary rocks in this comprehensive 24-minute video lecture. Dive into the three major groups of sedimentary rocks: clastic, chemical, and biogenic. Learn about endogenetic and exogenetic rocks, as well as intrabasinal and extrabasinal formations. Examine the differences in texture between clastic and chemical rocks, including their grain boundaries, porosity, and permeability. Discover how sedimentary rocks are classified based on grain size and composition. Gain insights into sedimentary structures, hybrid rocks, and the effects of diagenesis. Enhance your understanding of geological processes and rock formation through this informative presentation, complete with references and a detailed outline for further study.
