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.

| 454 | CNMST | RN | Cannel-mudstone - A type of sedimentary-rock rich in organic matter. Sapropelite and cannel-mudstone are both derived from the unlithified fine organic mud termed sapropel. These sapropels contain more inorganic matter and plant matter than the sapropels that form sapropelic coals. Inorganic sedimentary rocks rich in sapropel are classified according to their type of organic matter. Sapropelite is rich in alginite, whereas cannel-mudstone is rich in miospores. In the Rock Classification Scheme, it is recommended that total organic content (TOC) for cannel-mudstone should be between 8% and 50%.

| 459 | COLLW | RN | Colliery waste - A type of artifical deposit. It consists of heterolithic waste material produced from the mining of coal or associated ironstone and fireclay. It is commonly a mixture of mudstone, siltstone, sandstone, carbonaceous shale and coal, with minor amounts of ironstone. It may contain secondary minerals such as pyrite and sulphur.
