Rudaceous Rock

Definition:

A rudaceous rock refers to a type of sedimentary rock that mainly consists of particles or fragments of larger rocks and minerals. These fragments, known as clasts, are typically angular or rounded and are cemented together by a matrix substance, such as sand, clay, or silt.

Senses:

  1. Geology: In geology, rudaceous rocks are classified based on the size of the clasts present. Examples include conglomerate (coarse-grained), breccia (angular clasts), and sandstone (sand-sized clasts).
  2. Construction: Rudaceous rocks, particularly sandstone, are commonly used in construction for building materials such as bricks, tiles, and facades due to their durability and aesthetic appeal.

Examples:

  • Geology: The hiking trail led us to a breathtaking section where we saw layers of rudaceous rock formations.
  • Construction: The architect selected a beautiful sandstone from the quarry to use as the primary material for the building's exterior.
