Chemical rocks

Japanese: 化学岩 - かがくがん
Chemical rocks
Sedimentary rocks are formed by the chemical precipitation of dissolved substances in seawater, river water, lake water, hot spring water, etc. The precipitation mechanism of many rocks is unknown, except for evaporites such as halite and gypsum, and in many cases the action of microorganisms is thought to be involved. Examples include limestone, chert, gypsum, halite, and some sedimentary iron and manganese deposits.
