Classification of Sedimentary Rocks Part 1: Terrigenous/Siliciclastic Rocks
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 кві 2023
- We now know what sedimentary rocks are, but how do we classify them? We have to discuss three broad categories of sedimentary rock, and the first of these are terrigenous or siliciclastic rocks. These are rocks composed of clasts, or fragments of silicate minerals, derived from the erosion of preexisting rocks. Further categorization can get pretty tricky, requiring interesting looking ternary diagrams, so let's get a closer look now!

Geology is one of the fields where you can lick the science
Exactly
The term "quartzwacke" has to be one of the most wonderful words I've ever learned. I'm going to try using it in casual conversation to see if the person I'm talking to gets offended or not.
You'll definitely be the only one. In a geological career of over 44 years the only time I've used the term might have been on an exam. Too bad it's too long for Scrabble
You could be a mature, well-rounded....wacke!
@@mcv2178 I guess I am well rounded, but wacke enough that some question my maturity

Currently using this series to cram for my historical Geology Exam. If I don’t fail, I owe you a fucking debt. These videos are a life saver.
Thanks, Dave. Love the geo stuff.
I love how the fields of science overlap and support eachother. 🎉
Very good explanation ❤
My best series 🎉
Im rockin out to this video! LEARN!
Do you have a video on volcanic hydrothermal intrusions or better yet the geology of gold?
Please keep uploading such geology topics sir☺🥺
Can you please talk about writing a theoretical and actual yield when writing organic reactions notebook. This is vital in organic lab yet I do not see videos about it.
For as great as your content is damm you are underrated.
Sure you have 2.45 million subscribers, but for what content you produce, thats really a shame, i mean you explain this stuff better then most schools can.
I'm taking Sedimentology and Stratigraphy this semester. Our sandstone ternary diagram was a bit different. I wonder if it's because our book is old. There were quartzarenite, litharenite, arkose, subarkose, sublitharenite, feldspathic litharentie, and lithic arkose. And the percentage of matrix mud was 0-15% arenite, 15-75% wacke/graywacke, 75-100% mudstone. Anyways, it's cool you are covering some geology!
my sed/strat prof said that there are many different sandstone classification systems, which will differ from textbook/classes. Just use whichever is given!
Dave pleaaase do yhe engineering course you promised years ago😭😭.
We are all in need!!
(espacially needed is the topic of signals and dynamics systems)
Hey, I have a question about something you mentioned in another video but cannot find. I remember you stating in a debunk video that “you can’t find the study on [ insert website ], so it’s not real science.” The website in question I believe was like a search engine in that it could look up scientific studies.

@@ProfessorDaveExplains Thank you!
@@ProfessorDaveExplains Do The Natural Laws of Science end up in Balance & Equilibrium? Baal/Balance, balls....Strange. Physics, Biology, any other fields. Albert Pike in his 1871 Book called "Morals & Dogma" wrote about this Law of Equilibrium, how things perfectly balance out in the End.
Aagh I can't deny it anymore. I love you
How about concretion or breccia? How do you tell the difference?
Love me some geology. I hunt fossils so knowing geology helps.
Cool info. I'd like to think how this is useful to apply here on Earth and other planets possibly! 👍✌️❤️🤗
If you did a series on higher level maths like linear algebra, differential equations, functional analysis and series on some engineering courses like thermodynamics, EM, classical mechanics and quantum mechanics that would be awesome. It seems like you have the foundational knowledge to excel in those subjects and teach others.
I did an extensive linear algebra series, and have done some stuff on E&M and QM as well.
When I saw the thumbnail i thought "Great! Now Dave is into CSGO surf!"
Frank Turek did a collab with the duck dynasty guys recently, where they “dunk on” the Big Bang, if you want to give that a look….and yourself a migraine.
One must acquire a taste for the sediment
what is the difference between human DNA and Rock DNA
Hopefully you are joking, but in the chance that you're not, rocks don't have DNA.
Leaving a hit-and-run like and comment for your Almighty Algorithm!
❤❤
Can't wait to slip diamictite in to a conversation

Sometimes you're badass sometime a Dick, you're none other but professor David.
Cool, now explain how the Egyptians moved 1,000 ton blocks of Granite hundreds of miles.
Um, slaves. Also definitely not hundreds of miles.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains But I've been told slavery started in 1612.
Are my professors wrongs?
@@hansgustavson2271 Um, yeah. Look into it.
I hate to ask, Dave. I know it's a big topic. On your debunking channel, can you please deal with the persistent incessant climate change denial? Things like "co2 is actually good for us because it means more plants" and "humans will thrive in a warmer environment"?
No I don't think I will rub rocks on my teeth, thank you.
