Part 3 – Layered metamorphosed sedimentary rock worldwide

Sedimentary rocks are widelyoccurring

� Beautiful mountain scenes

� All over the world

� Mostly metamorphosed sedimentary rocks

“The continental crust is composedprimarily of sedimentary rocks”– New World Encyclopedia

“Sedimentary rocks are ... a thin veneer” -- Wikipedia

No evidence of a basin or edge deposits

� Sedimentary rocks cover most of the earth’s continents

� There is little or no evidence of basin edges

� “basins” overlap horizontally and vertically

� Depth runs to as much as 10,000 meters

� The magnitude of material is consistent with a global hydraulic event “flood” or inundation with a global sea

Uniform grain size and then suddenly boulders and pebbles

� Grain size is uniform over large areas

� Different layers can have widely differing grain sizes

� Large boulders have been transported in some instances

Also volcanic pipes with no volcano

� Diamonds are found in volcanic pipes where the volcano has been cut away

Sedimentary rocks

� Frequently but NOT ALWAYS metamorphosed

� Associated with large waterfalls

� Now visible at a site near you or perhaps all around you?

Massive wave action can move huge volumes of material very rapidly

Summing up

� Huge areas of sedimentary rocks

� All over the world

� Requires massive water extent, depth and velocity

� Overlain with massive amounts of material that has disappeared in order to apply the required pressure

� Not a small local inland sea or even a large one

� A massive global hydraulic event the only plausible explanation?

� Where did the water come from and where has it gone?

� Does it matter? Why?
