A sedimentary rock composed mainly of calcium carbonate, typically formed from the skeletal fragments of marine organisms.

Shales

Fine-grained sedimentary rocks that can split into thin, parallel layers, composed mainly of clay minerals.

Siltstones

Fine-grained sedimentary rocks that consist predominantly of silt particles, smaller than sand grains but larger than clay, often formed in quiet water environments.

Lime Muds

Fine-grained sediments composed largely of calcium carbonate, typically formed in marine environments where organisms such as coral or foraminifera are prevalent.
