siltstone teriminin İngilizce İngilizce sözlükte anlamı

A sedimentary rock whose composition is intermediate in grain size between the coarser sandstone and the finer mudstone

Hardened sedimentary rock that is composed primarily of angular silt-sized particles (see silt) and that is not laminated or easily split into thin layers. Siltstones, which are hard and durable, occur in thin layers rarely thick enough to be classified as formations. They are intermediate between sandstones and shales but are not as common as either

- a very fine grained sedimentary rock, sometimes referred to as a shale

Sedimentary rock composed of silt-size (0 004-0 06 mm) particles (i e , silt is coarser than clay, but finer than sand and has a slightly gritty feel when rubbed between the fingers or placed between the front teeth and lightly ground)

A sedimentary rock made up of particles that are intermediate between sand and clay (larger than 1/256 mm and smaller than 1/16 mm)

A very fine-grained, clastic rock composed predominantly of particles of silt grade

A sedimentary rock similar in composition to mudstone, but slightly coarser grained

Fine grained sedimentary rock composed of lithified silt particles

n a type of sedimentary rock composed primarily of silt-sized particles

A rock composed chiefly of indurated silt

a fine-grained, layered sedimentary rock composed primarily of grains between 1/256 mm and 1/16 mm in size Siltstones tend to be "flaggy" and contain hard thin layers They feel grittier than shales or mudstones

a fine-grained sandstone of consolidated silt
