Clastic sedimentary rocks are classified according to the grain size of the sediment and the kinds of rock fragments that make up the sediment (Table ) Grain size is largely a function of the distance the particle was transported In 2024年10月30日 Varieties include siltstone (average grain size between 1 / 16 and 1 / 256 millimetre) and claystone (discrete particles are mostly finer than 1 / 256 millimetre) Mud is a mixture of silt and claysize material, and mudrock is Sedimentary rock Classification, Deposits, Types2015年1月1日 Grain size is the classifying and defining parameter for clastic rocks In general, particles are of nonspherical shape; thus the “grain diameter” depends on the technique of its Rocks—Their Classification and General Properties ScienceDirect14 2 Particle Size, Size Distributions and Shape 21 Particle Size In the ideal world of particle characterization, all particles would be homogeneous spheres Moreover, they would have uniform properties such as density, chemical composition, color, and opacity Then, all size measurement methods would yield the same size for a particle, being Chapter 2 Particle Size, Size Distributions and Shape Springer
