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.

| 3138 | SNDMUD | RN | Mud, sandy (Sea bed sediment, based on Folk) - A type of marine sediment. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/04, table 8c. Symbol: sM | Sandy mud (Sea bed sediment, based on Folk) | C | GRBA | 24-FEB-00 | TMCM | 13-MAR-19 | U | |
| 3139 | SNDYPT | RN | Sandy-peat - A type of peat. It is an unlithified end-member of the impure humic coal series. The impure humic coal series can be subdivided into muddy-peat / sandy-peat (the unlithified form) and impure-coal (the lithified form). Muddy-peat and sandy-peat are distinguished on the basis of their mineral content.
