the physical and chemical changes occurring in sediments between their deposition and their consolidation into sedimentary rock

مثال
The process of diagenesis can transform loose sediment into solid rock, such as sandstone, shale, or limestone, over geological time scales.
During diagenesis, sediments may experience compaction, cementation, mineral alteration, and the migration of fluids, which ultimately lead to the formation of sedimentary rocks.
Diagenesis refers to the physical, chemical, and biological changes that sediments undergo after deposition and before lithification.
The study of diagenesis provides insights into the history of sedimentary rocks and the environmental conditions present during their formation, as well as their potential as hydrocarbon reservoirs.
