In what environment does this rock type typically form?

The rock identified above is 4.03 Ga. This is the oldest yet dated rock in Earth’s history. Which part of Earth’s biography does this characterize?

The middle layer is characterized by poorly sorted sediment ranging from fine to extremely coarse. The image below provides a closer look. The large white rock pictured below is ~3 feet wide. What is this rock?

The fine-grained Cedar Mesa Sandstone is pictured below. What structure does it exhibit and which environment produced this layer?  

Check the box next to the “Lone Pine Fault” folder and double click to fly there. Zoom in a bit to better see the fault scarp where the placemarks are. The scarp is slightly darker gray than its surroundings. The red line illustrates the base of the scarp. Based on the locations of the “Hanging wall” and “Footwall” placemarks, what type of fault is this?

Check the “Yucatan, Mexico” folder and double click to fly there. Inspect the area highlighted in the “Yucatan, Gulf of Mexico” Image overlay. As well as the “Drill Core M0077A” placemark (click its name to view two images representing important finds within the core at ~65 Mya). Which of the following statements is NOT supported by the data at this location:

Check the box next to the “Canyonlands” placemark. Double click to fly there. We can see three distinct layers in this valley (a gray-base, pink-middle, and light tan-top). Match the geologic principle to a fact it tells about this landscape:

What is a likely protolith for this rock?

What is a likely depositional environment during this time?
