DIC_ROCK_ALL (3677 rows)
Dictionary table based on the entire version 3 of the BGS Rock Classification Scheme and is populated directly from the 3 supplying tables (BGS.ROCK_NAME_V3, BGS.ROCK_COMPOSITE and BGS.DIC_ROCK_DUMMY). It contains both the base rock names and addditional codes required for specific application, eg. composite names for use on digital geological maps. It is formally approved as the official source of ALL database codes to be used in BGS corporate databases and MUST be followed.

| 1120 | LMPSST | RN | Lime-pseudosparstone - A type of limestone, classified on the basis of its diagenetic texture. It is a limestone composed almost totally of a divergent radial fibrous calcite cement in which grains or in-situ biogenic material do not constitute a framework. The calcite pseudospar occurs as in-situ botryoidal masses commonly found in the core of algal mounds and probably formed from early diagenetic alteration of aragonite masses. The diagenetic process does not cause any alteration to the depositional or biological texture.
