However, limestone can be part of a rock *sequence* or *formation*, which are groups of rocks that formed together in a particular geological setting. This sequence might include other sedimentary rocks like sandstone or shale, or even some metamorphic rocks.
Here's a breakdown:
* Limestone itself: It's a single rock type.
* Rock group: This term usually refers to a group of musicians.
* Rock sequence/formation: These are groups of rocks that occur together in a specific location.
So, while limestone doesn't belong to a "rock group" in the usual sense, it can be part of a larger geological sequence or formation.
