06-Batuan Endapan Table kbkn2 LingkEndTransisi

This document describes the characteristics of four transitional sedimentary environments: deltas, barrier beaches, lagoons, and tidal flats. It provides details on the rock types, compositions, colors, grain sizes, sorting, sedimentary structures, and fossils typically found in each of these environments. Deltas are composed of terrigenous sediments like sandstone and shale that coarse upward, barrier beaches contain quartz arenite and shells, lagoons feature finer sediments like siltstone and limestone, and tidal flats are made up of mudstones, carbonates, and evaporites.
