• Black and Gray

What process is used to form sedimentary rocks?

• Lava cools and hardens to form a rock.
• Weathering, Erosion, Deposition, Compaction, Cementation
• Extreme heat and pressure from inside the Earth turn rocks into new rocks.
• Magma trapped under the Earth's surface cools and solidifies.
