What is the difference between Hermit Shale and Coconino Sandstone?
nothing
Is sandstone a fossil?
A fossil is the preserved remains of an animal, plant or other organism while sandstone is a type of sedimentary rock. There is a fairly distinct difference between the two, thus sandstone is not a fossil. Sandstone may have fossil inclusions, but we are talking about two different things regarding fossils and sandstone.
Which happened first intrusion or extrusion?
Either or both together. Really they are companion actions but the ratio between them will depend on the specific site. However the magma has to be intruded into the solid crust before it can break surface as an extrusive event - a volcanic eruption.
An igneous intrusion that cuts across rock layers is called a?
A discordant intrusion is known as a dyke. A larger intrusion may also be a pluton or batholith, which both also cut across rock strata. A sill is an intrusion which is concordant, and goes between the strata. This does not necessarily mean that it is horizontal.
Which two kinds of adjoining bedrock would most likely have a zone of contact metamorphism between them?
shale and sandstone

What is difference between conglomerate and pebbly sandstone?
Conglomerate can include much larger clasts of rock.

What is the difference between the processes of stamping and extrusion?
Stamping involves a force applied to a die that removes a section of material, typically thin. Extrusion is a process where a force is applied to a fluid material which is pushed through a die creating the rough final form. Extrusion is much less wasteful in most circumstances.
What is the difference between a sandstone rock and a marble rock?
Chemically, a quartz sandstone is different than a calcitic marble. Additionally, they are classified differently by their method of formation. Sandstone is a sedimentary rock, and marble is a metamorphic rock. Sandstone has cemented grains, and marble has interconnected crystals.
What is the difference between sandstone and limestone in laboratory?
Sandstone is made mostly from sand-sized quartz particles. On the other hand, limestone is made from finer grains of calcite material.
