Sedimentary rock formation begins with igneous metamorphic or other sedimentary rocks When these rocks are exposed at the earth’s surface they begin the long slow but relentless process of becoming sedimentary rockApr 21 32 On one of our walks she showed me how she was making it and seemed very fascinated by the process She knew it was called “ochre” and told me that it had sprinkled with rain while they were making it at school and turned into paint She could not stop talking about it for at least 20 minut We decided to collect a few more rocks and add
