In this video we will classify the three major types of sedimentary rocks (clastic, chemical, biochemical) and give examples of each. You can learn how to casually drop terms like haboob, coccolithophore, and conglomerate into conversation. Finally, we explain how each type of sedimentary rock is formed and the settings where they could be found.
