Sedimentary rocks are formed of sediments derived from the older rocks, plant and animal remains and thus these rocks contain fossils of plants and animals. The age of the formation of a given sedimentary rock may be determined on the basis of the analysis of the fossils to be found in that rock.
Sedimentary rocks are found over the largest surface area of the globe. It is believed that about 75 per cent of the surface area of the globe is covered by sedimentary rocks whereas igneous and metamorphic rocks cover the remaining 25 per cent area.
