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.

2662 PHOST  RN  Phosphorite - In the Rock Classification Scheme, all lithified phosphate-rich sedimentary rocks are given this group name. This is the lithified equivalent of phosphate-sediment. The textural classification of phosphorites follows that for limestone. The classification of phosphorites composed dominantly of one constituent similarly follows that for limestone.

2666 PHPST  RN  Phosphate-packstone - A type of phosphorite, classified on the basis of its depositional texture. It is a grain-supported phosphorite with intergranular spaces filled by matrix (mud-grade material smaller than 32 µm). British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/03, section 4.2, table 11 and fig. 8.  Phosphate-packstone  C  GRBA  24-FEB-00  TMCM  08-MAR-19    R 
2667 PHSD  RN  Phosphate-sediment - In the Rock Classification Scheme, all phosphate-sediments are given this group name. This is the unlithified equivalent of phosphorite.

2668 PHSND  RN  Phosphate-sand - A type of phosphate-sediment. In the Rock Classification Scheme, it is one in which clasts are predominantly 32 µm to 2 mm, with less than 75% of the clasts smaller than 32 µm and less than 25% larger than 2 mm. The grain size classes are defined in the same way as the siliciclastic sediments. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/03, section 4.1, table 10 and fig. 8.
