  • Breccia: Understanding Angular Sedimentary Rock Composition
    The sedimentary rock made of large, angular pieces of sediment is called breccia.

    Here's why:

    * Angular Fragments: Breccia is characterized by its angular, sharp-edged fragments. This indicates that the pieces were not transported far from their source before being cemented together.

    * Size: The fragments in breccia are typically larger than 2 millimeters in diameter, which is considered coarse-grained.
