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.

| 247 | BBTPH | RN | Bomb-block-tephra - 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 exceeds 64 mm. Block-tephra, bomb-block-tephra, block-bomb-tephra, and bomb-tephra are separated according to the relative proportion of blocks (angular fragments exceeding 64 mm) and bombs (rounded fragments exceeding 64 mm): if between 50% and 75% of all pyroclastic fragments bigger than 64 mm are blocks the sediment is bomb-block-tephra. It is the unconsolidated equivalent of pyroclastic-breccia.
