What is Sedimentary Rock?

Фильм және анимация

Rocks are cool. Seriously! I talk today about sedimentary rocks: how they come to be, why they are awesome, and the sorts of things we can learn from them. I show a bit of my rock collection and check out wild rocks with my friend Mark Roberts in the desert (thanks for letting me include your wonderful hands!).

    I am so grateful to have come across your video, Kurtis. Your passion and energy is on point for sharing this knowledge with others, even with children. We are homeschooling, and I love learning with my children, especially with wonderful videos such as this. Great work!

    Nicely done! Good summary intro to sedimentary rocks. More geology videos!! There are also some fossils found in volcanic rocks too, but yes most are in sedimentary rocks. Or even their weakly metamorphosed equivalents! I wish I had even 1/10th of your audience, but I don't post often enough I suppose.

    Nice job, I enjoyed your video! I'm more of a metamorphic rock fan, myself, simply for the aesthetics and feel, but sedimentary rocks are very cool as well. Older sedimentary rocks in the Canadian Shield give you the extra challenge of not necessarily being horizontal, or even only inclined. Flame structures and drop-stones in sedimentary rock would have to be my favourite sedimentary structures, but there are so many! Crossbedding... is it aeolian? lacustrine? What kind of environment was that sediment deposited in??? But most importantly... WHERE IS THE GOLD !!!! :-)

    Makes 3/4 quarters of all of the rocks surface. And Old Rock Needs to erode But a new One is Born. But Then They need a place to go to Or deposit. When all the decree weighs on it is then called compact. Lithification is when you have Two rocks Compacted Together And a chemical Bond forms Between Them.

    @@nicktohzyu There's nothing special separating them, just think about it like this: you make a flat rectangle out of clay and let it dry. Once it dried you put another one on top and let it dry, repeat the process a few times. When they're all dry you've now got a block, but if you aply pressure paralel to the limits between the rectangles they will separate. Of course it happens differently in nature. I'll try my best to explain but take this with a grain of salt. So, sediments are brought to an aquatic envoironment and deposit. Trough the course of thousands of years they accumulate and the pressure on the sediments on the bottom increases. So the sediments compact and between them forms a percipitate that glues them together. Now you got 1 layer, but the new sediments on top of that aren't compacted because there's no weight on top of them and that's there are layers instead of just one block, simply because sediments come very slowly and not all at once, so by the time enough sediments fall to the bottom to make a layer, the layer below is already solidified. There can be Iridium separating layers and this usually indicates a mass extinction caused my a meteor, as Iridium is pretty rare on earth but comonly found in asteroids. I hope I explained it well enough

Also sediments aren't continuouslt pouring in and that's why you can destinguish different layers by looking at them or putting pressure on them until they separate

    What did you do to your hand? Thanks for showing part of the rock cycle! Sedimentary rocks are my favorite as well. Only if they are Precambrian, because I hate fossils. Except trilobites. Especially sandstone and quartzite (which is metamorphic, depending on who you ask). Dammit. Orange is my favorite color!

Since you're basically wedging your hands between rocks and pulling your body up with it, the tape is a must lol Nice! Wait, whats wrong with fossils??? "Depending who you ask" lol there is still so much controversy in geology, its wacky! Edit: our* hands
