WHAT HAPPEN TO A SEDIMENT ROCKS OVER A MILLION YEARS?

Over a million years, sedimentary rocks can undergo various geological processes. They may be buried deeper under additional layers of sediment, leading to increased pressure and temperature, which can cause them to metamorphose into metamorphic rocks. Alternatively, they might be exposed to weathering and erosion, breaking down into smaller particles and potentially being transported and redeposited elsewhere. Additionally, tectonic activity can uplift or deform sedimentary layers, altering their structure and location.
