roca sedimentaria de la playa Explanation: L’area è caratterizzata da quattro altopiani, divisi da vallate profondamente incise dai torrenti principali, con formazione di pareti strapiombanti. Da est a ovest si trovano: l’altopiano delle Manie, costellato da depressioni chiuse e da valli fossili di origine carsica; esso è delimitato verso est dalle falesie di Capo Noli e del Malpasso, che precipitano in mare da oltre 200 metri di altezza e ai cui piedi si hanno affioramenti importanti di “panchina” (o “beach-rock”) dovuta alla cementazione della sabbia da acque calcaree di sorgenti carsiche sottomarine. http://cartonline.provincia.savona.it/dprcartine/vinc_arprot... Beach rock derived from Quaternary coastal plain sediments. Beach rock is the host material of most beach fossils. The matrix consists of fine to coarse sand, even conglomerate. Sand is cemented with calcite or limonite. (Shell-bearing limonite samples may be recent "rusted iron."). This cobble of well cemented beach rock contains jingle shells, oysters, gastropods, shark vertebrae, and spruce pine cones. http://www.geo.hunter.cuny.edu/bight/rocks.html Roca Sedimentaria http://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/earth/geology/sed_int... |

coquina Explanation: Lumaquelas y coquinas: Las lumaquelas (del italiano lumachella o caracolillo) y coquinas (conchas), son rocas calcáreas sedimentarias formadas por conchas de moluscos, tales como gasterópodos y lamelibranquios, y otros organismos. Se distinguen también las denominadas calizas nummulíticas; las cuales están formadas a base de fósiles nummulítodos. Los caparazones de estos foraminíferos han dado lugar a grandes depósitos de de estas rocas, muy abundantes en el Terciario. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 43 mins (2005-06-12 15:32:14 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- /html.rincondelvago.com/rocas-sedimentarias_2.html |
