Breccia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Breccia (pronounced /ˈbrɛtʃiə, ˈbrɛʃiə/ , Italian: ) is a rock composed of angular fragments of minerals or rocks in a matrix (cementing material), that may be similar or different in compositi...

Breccia Dike Characteristics in Terrestrial Craters: Breccia dikes are a common feature in eroded terrestrial complex impact craters [e.g., 8]. In a classic study, Lambert [8] proposed a classification system of breccia dikes in crystalline rocks distinguishing Type A (range up to a few cm in width, consist of small...

There are three basic types of sedimentary rocks: 1) clastic sedimentary rocks such as breccia, conglomerate, sandstone and shale, that are formed from mechanical weathering debris; 2) chemical sedimentary rocks such as rock salt and some limestones, that form when dissolved materials precipitate from solution;

Breccia is an Italian word for fragments of stone. ... Breccia is an Italian word for fragments of stone, and from old German, "break-fracture".;; Breccias consist of angular stone fragments related to the rocks from which they were derived, Limestone or Marble, and cemented together in a very fine to medium-grained matrix.

Breccias observed at Jeptha Knob have characteristics similar to the Sierra Madera and Lockne breccias and therefore may also have formed as a result of impact. In the rock formations that compose the Jeptha Knob structure similar breccias are not found outside the limits of this structure.
