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.

751 FEMUD  RN  Iron-mud - A type of iron-sediment. In the Rock Classification Scheme, it is one in which over 75% of the clasts are smaller than 32 µm. The grain size classes are defined in the same way as the siliciclastic sediments. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/03, section 5.1, table 13 and fig. 9. See also: silicate-mud.  Iron-mud  GRBA  24-FEB-00  TMCM  08-MAR-19   
752 FENITE  RN  Fenite - A type of metasomatic-rock. Fenites are desilicated crustal rocks formed by reaction with Na- and K-rich fluids expelled during the emplacement of carbonatite or undersaturated alkaline magmas. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/02, section 8.  Fenite  GRBA  24-FEB-00  TMCM  22-FEB-19   
753 FEOCBT  RN  Ferrocarbonatite - A type of carbonatite. In the Rock Classification Scheme, this term may be used when a chemical classification is necessary because the rock is too fine grained for an accurate mode to be determined, or if the carbonate minerals are complex Ca-Mg-Fe solid solutions. The definition of ferrocarbonatite is as shown in British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/06, section 6.1 and figs. 25, 26. See also: ferroan-carbonatite.  Ferrocarbonatite  GRBA  24-FEB-00  TMCM  22-FEB-19

758 FEPST  RN  Iron-packstone - A type of ironstone, classified on the basis of its depositional texture. It is a grain-supported ironstone with intergranular spaces filled by matrix (mud-grade material smaller than 32 µm). British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/03, section 5.2, table 14 and fig. 9.  Iron-packstone  GRBA  24-FEB-00  TMCM  08-MAR-19   
759 FESD  RN  Iron-sediment - In the Rock Classification Scheme, all iron-sediments are given this group name. This is the unlithified equivalent of ironstone. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/03, section 5.1 and fig. 9.  Iron-sediment  GRBA  24-FEB-00  TMCM  08-MAR-19
