| 1. | The process of turning loose sediment into hard is called lithification.
|
| 2. | In the case of silica cements, the process is called lithification.
|
| 3. | As the sediments become more deeply buried lithification begins and sedimentary rock results.
|
| 4. | Lithification of the sediments formed protective nodules of ironstone around the now fossilized remains.
|
| 5. | These laminae were deformed prior to the lithification of the sand to form sandstone.
|
| 6. | The primary physical process in lithification is compaction.
|
| 7. | This forms part of the process of lithification.
|
| 8. | As rocks are buried, they undergo lithification and the connate fluids are usually expelled.
|
| 9. | After lithification, shale, siltstone, and sandstone are formed from the detrital deposits.
|
| 10. | During the process of lithification, sediments undergo physical, chemical and mineralogical changes before becoming rock.
