Question

Tell me the texture, the grain size, the composition, the rock name and it's deposional environment. The rock I need identify is rock #24 and the image is below. Also there is an example on how it should look on rock #13. 

The image showcases a light-colored rock or mineral specimen labeled with the number "24" on a small round sticker attached to its surface. The specimen appears to have a rough texture with irregular edges, suggesting it may be a piece of sedimentary or metamorphic rock. The background is a dark, textured surface, likely used to highlight the specimen's details.

**Sample #:** 13 **Texture:** Rough, gritty, coarse-grained **Grain Size:** Gravel **Composition:** Feldspar, hematite, quartz **Rock Name:** Breccia **Depositional Environment:** Mountains This is a table entry describing a rock sample. It includes details about the rock's texture, grain size, composition, name, and the environment in which it was deposited. The sample is noted for its rough, gritty, and coarse-grained texture, with gravel-sized grains. It is composed of feldspar, hematite, and quartz, and identified as Breccia, typically found in mountainous regions.
