Abstract: A cleaning composition and method for the removal of contaminants, such as, oil and grease from a surface, particularly concrete and asphalt. The composition includes an absorptive material, charcoal, and a pH modifying agent which is applied and removed in a dry form.
Sedimentary rocks form when particles of sediment are deposited by water or wind, and then (in most cases) hardened or consolidated through time. Shale, sandstone, and limestone are types of sedimentary rocks that often contain fossils.ven though a relatively small proportion of plants and animals that live are preserved as fossils, because so many animals live and die, and because sedimentary rock is very common, finding fossiliferous (fossil-bearing) rocks is not very difficult.
Fossils are the preserved remains or traces of animals and plants. They form by a process called fossilization. Fossils are usually found in rock, but they can also be found in mud or gravel. Most have lain buried for millions of years. The word fossil comes from the Latin word fossilis.
