DIC_ROCK_ALL (3677 rows)
Dictionary table based on the entire version 3 of the BGS Rock Classification Scheme and is populated directly from the 3 supplying tables (BGS.ROCK_NAME_V3, BGS.ROCK_COMPOSITE and BGS.DIC_ROCK_DUMMY). It contains both the base rock names and addditional codes required for specific application, eg. composite names for use on digital geological maps. It is formally approved as the official source of ALL database codes to be used in BGS corporate databases and MUST be followed.

| 458 | COLEST | RN | Colemanite-stone - A type of non-carbonate salt that is composed of particles of the borate mineral colemanite. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/03, section 7.1 and fig. 11. | Colemanite-stone | C | GRBA | 24-FEB-00 | TMCM | 08-MAR-19 | R | |
| 459 | COLLW | RN | Colliery waste - A type of artifical deposit. It consists of heterolithic waste material produced from the mining of coal or associated ironstone and fireclay. It is commonly a mixture of mudstone, siltstone, sandstone, carbonaceous shale and coal, with minor amounts of ironstone. It may contain secondary minerals such as pyrite and sulphur.
