Rock that was once one form of rock but has changed to another under the influence of heat, pressure, or some other agent without passing through a liquid phase. Note : Examples are marble, which can be formed from limestone, and slate, which is formed from shale.

Sedimentary rocks are often deposited in layers, and frequently contain fossils. Note : Limestone and shale are common sedimentary rocks.

Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.

The sub-discipline of geology that involves study of rock strata is called stratigraphy. Layering of rocks or sediment is also called stratification. A sequence of sedimentary layers stacked one atop the other is known as a stratigraphic section.
