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.

| 174 | ASH | RN | Ash - A type of pyroclastic-sediment. In the Rock Classification Scheme, it is a pyroclastic-sediment in which the average size of more than 75% of the pyroclastic fragments is less than 64 mm. Lapilli-tephra, lapilli-ash, and ash are separated according to the relative proportion of lapilli-grade (2 - 64 mm) and ash-grade (<2 mm) fragments: if less than 25% of the fragments are lapilli the sediment is ash. It is the unconsolidated equivalent of tuff. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/06, section 4.2 and fig. 4. | Ash | C | GRBA | 24-FEB-00 | TMCM | 15-FEB-19 | R | |

It is the unconsolidated equivalent of tuff-breccia. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/06, section 4.2 and fig. 4. | Ash-breccia | C | GRBA | 24-FEB-00 | TMCM | 15-FEB-19 | R | |
